NAS Daniel 9:20 Now while I was speaking and praying, and confessing
my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before
the LORD my God in behalf of the holy mountain of my God, 21 while I was still
speaking in prayer, then the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision
previously, came to me in my extreme weariness about the time of the
evening offering. 22 And he gave me instruction and talked with me, and
said, "O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you insight with
understanding. 23 "At the beginning of your supplications the command was
issued, and I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed; so
give heed to the message and gain understanding of the vision. 24 "Seventy
weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the
transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring
in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the
most holy place. 25 "So you are to know and discern that from
the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the
Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built
again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress. 26 "Then after the
sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing, and the people of
the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will
come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are
determined. 27 "And he will make a firm 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 abominations will come one who makes
desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out
on the one who makes desolate."

preach to the Gentiles the unfathomable riches of Christ, 9 and to bring to

might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in
the heavenly places.
