Seventy weeks are cut of upon thy people, & upon thy holy city, to finish wickedness, to consume sin, & to purge iniquity, & to bring in the righteousness of the worlds, & to finish the vision, & the prophet, and to anoint the holy of the holy. Know therefore & ⟨image 69⟩understand, that from the going forth of the commandment, for the bringing back of the people, and the building of Jerusalem unto Christ the prince, shall be seven weeks, and threescore two weeks, and he shall come again, and the street and the wall shall be builded again in the straits of times. But after threescore two weeks, Christ shall be cut of, and there shall be none (to help him) and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and Sanctuary, and the end thereof with a flood, and to the end of the battle it shall be cut of with desolations. And he shall strengthen a covenant with many one week, and in the mids of the week he shall cause to cease the sacrifice and oblation, and for the overspreading of abomination, he shall make desolate until the consummation, and (truly) being cut of shall be poured upon the wonderer.
