Daniel 9:20-27
New American Standard Bible
Gabriel Brings an Answer
20 While I was still (A)speaking and praying, and (B)confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and [a]presenting my plea before the Lord my God in behalf of the holy mountain of my God, 21 while I was still speaking in prayer, the man (C)Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision [b]previously, [c]came to me [d]in my extreme weariness about the time of the (D)evening offering. 22 And he instructed me and talked with me and said, “Daniel, I have come now to give you insight with (E)understanding. 23 At the (F)beginning of your pleas the [e]command was issued, and I have come to tell you, because you are [f](G)highly esteemed; so pay attention to the message and gain (H)understanding of the vision.
Seventy Weeks and the Messiah
24 “Seventy [g](I)weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to [h]finish the wrongdoing, to [i]make an end of sin, to (J)make atonement for guilt, to bring in (K)everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and [j]prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy Place. 25 So you are to know and understand that from the issuing of a [k](L)decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, until [l](M)Messiah the (N)Prince, there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with [m]streets and moat, even in times of distress. 26 Then after the sixty-two weeks, the [n]Messiah will be (O)cut off and have [o]nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will (P)destroy the city and the sanctuary. And [p]its end will come with a (Q)flood; even to the end [q]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 [r](R)abominations will come the one who [s]makes desolate, until a (S)complete destruction, one that is [t]decreed, gushes forth on the one who [u]makes desolate.”

New International Version
The Seventy “Sevens”
20 While I was speaking and praying, confessing(A) my sin and the sin of my people Israel and making my request to the Lord my God for his holy hill(B)— 21 while I was still in prayer, Gabriel,(C) the man I had seen in the earlier vision, came to me in swift flight about the time of the evening sacrifice.(D) 22 He instructed me and said to me, “Daniel, I have now come to give you insight and understanding.(E) 23 As soon as you began to pray,(F) a word went out, which I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed.(G) Therefore, consider the word and understand the vision:(H)
24 “Seventy ‘sevens’[a] are decreed for your people and your holy city(I) to finish[b] transgression, to put an end to sin, to atone(J) for wickedness, to bring in everlasting righteousness,(K) 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(L) Jerusalem until the Anointed One,[d](M) the ruler,(N) comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble.(O) 26 After the sixty-two ‘sevens,’ the Anointed One will be put to death(P) 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:(Q) War will continue until the end, and desolations(R) have been decreed.(S) 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(T) is poured out on him.[i]”[j]
