Seventy weeks shall be shortened upon thy people,1 & upon thy holy city, that wickedness may be finished, & sin may take an end, & iniquity wiped out, & everlasting righteousness may be brought in, & the vision & prophecy may be fulfilled, and the holy of holy ones may be anointed. Know therefore & ⟨image 68⟩understand, that from the going forth of the commandment, that Jerusalem shall be builded again, even to Christ the prince seven weeks, & three score two weeks shall be. And the streets shall be builded again, & the walls in straitness of times. And after three score two weeks shall Christ be slain, & that shall not be his people which will deny him. And the people with the prince that shall come, shall destroy the city & the Sanctuary, & the end shall be destruction, & after the end of the war determined desolation. But he shall con firm his covenant to many in one week, & in the mids of the week the offering & sacrifice shall cease, & there shall be in the Temple abomination of desolation, and even to the consummation and end shall the desolation continue.
