For your people and for your holy city,
To finish the transgression,
1To make an end of sins,
aTo make reconciliation for iniquity,
bTo bring in everlasting righteousness,
To seal up vision and prophecy,
cAnd to anoint1 the Most Holy.
That from the going forth of the command
To restore and build Jerusalem
Until aMessiah bthe Prince,
There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks;
The street shall be built again, and the2 wall,
Even in troublesome times.
aMessiah shall1 be cut off, bbut not for Himself;
And cthe people of the prince who is to come
dShall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
cEven until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the1 desolate.”
