Daniel 9:26-27
1599 Geneva Bible
26 And after threescore and two [a]weeks, shall Messiah be slain, and shall [b]have nothing, and the people of the [c]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 battle it shall be destroyed by desolations.
27 And he [d]shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to [e]cease, [f]and for the overspreading of the abominations, he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
