Daniel 9:23-25
International Standard Version
23 Because you’re highly regarded, the answer was issued when you began your prayer, and I’ve come to tell you. Pay attention to my message and you’ll understand the vision. 24 Seventy weeks[a] have been decreed concerning your people and your holy city: to restrain transgression, to put an end to sin, to make atonement for lawlessness, to establish everlasting righteousness, to conclude vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy Place. 25 So be informed and discern that seven weeks and 62 weeks will elapse[b] from the issuance of the command to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed Commander.[c] The plaza and moat will be rebuilt, though in troubled times.
