25 And you must know and you must understand[a] that from the time of the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem until an anointed[b] onea leader—will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;[c] it will be restored and will be built with streets and a moat, but in a time of oppression.[d]

26 “And after the sixty and two weeks an anointed one[e] shall be cut off, and he shall have nothing,[f] and the people of the coming leader will destroy the city and the sanctuary,[g] and its end will be with the flood and on to the end there shall be war; these desolations are determined. 27 And he will make a strong covenant with the many for one week, but in half of the week he will let cease sacrifice and offering and in its place[h] a desolating abomination comes even until the determined complete destruction[i] is poured out on the desolator.”
