25 Know and understand that seven weeks and sixty-two weeks will pass from the time the people are told to build Jerusalem again until the Chosen One comes. It will be built again, with streets and with a ditch of water around it. But that will be a troubled time. 26 After the sixty-two weeks, the Chosen One will be killed and have nothing.
