Daniel:9:21-26
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Yea ,
whiles I was speaking in prayer ,
even the man Gabriel ,
whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning ,
being caused to fly swiftly ,
touched me about the time of the evening oblation .
*
And he informed me ,
and talked with me ,
and said ,
O Daniel ,
I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding .
*
At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth ,
and I am come to shew thee ;
for thou art greatly beloved :
therefore understand the matter ,
and consider the vision .
*
Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city ,
to finish the transgression ,
and to make an end of sins ,
and to make reconciliation for iniquity ,
and to bring in everlasting righteousness ,
and to seal up the vision and prophecy ,
and to anoint the most Holy .
*
Know therefore and understand ,
that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks ,
and threescore and two weeks :
the street shall be built again ,
and the wall ,
even in troublous times .
*
And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off ,
but not for himself :
and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary ;
and the end thereof shall be with a flood ,
and unto the end of the war desolations are determined .
