Daniel 9:24-27
New American Standard Bible
Seventy Weeks and the Messiah
24 “Seventy [a](A)weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to [b]finish the wrongdoing, to [c]make an end of sin, to (B)make atonement for guilt, to bring in (C)everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and [d]prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy Place. 25 So you are to know and understand that from the issuing of a [e](D)decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, until [f](E)Messiah the (F)Prince, there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with [g]streets and moat, even in times of distress. 26 Then after the sixty-two weeks, the [h]Messiah will be (G)cut off and have [i]nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will (H)destroy the city and the sanctuary. And [j]its end will come with a (I)flood; even to the end [k]there will be war; desolations are determined. 27 And he will confirm a covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of [l](J)abominations will come the one who [m]makes desolate, until a (K)complete destruction, one that is [n]decreed, gushes forth on the one who [o]makes desolate.”

New International Version
24 “Seventy ‘sevens’[a] are decreed for your people and your holy city(A) to finish[b] transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone(B) for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness,(C) to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the Most Holy Place.[c]
25 “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild(D) Jerusalem until the Anointed One,[d](E) the ruler,(F) comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.(G) 26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death(H) and will have nothing.[e] The people of the ruler who will come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood:(I) War will continue until the end, and desolations(J) have been decreed.(K) 27 He will confirm a covenant with many for one ‘seven.’[f] In the middle of the ‘seven’[g] he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And at the temple[h] he will set up an abomination that causes desolation, until the end that is decreed(L) is poured out on him.[i]”[j]
