Read in context

Daniel 9:25–27 · Berean Standard Bible

25 Know and understand this: From the issuance of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem, until the Messiah, the Prince, there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks. It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of distress.

26 Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and will have nothing. Then the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end will come like a flood, and until the end there will be war; desolations have been decreed.

27 And he will confirm a covenant with many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of the temple will come the abomination that causes desolation, until the decreed destruction is poured out upon him.”

Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.

by the new and living way opened for us through the curtain of His body,

Hebrews 10:21

and since we have a great priest over the house of God,

let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

And I will lay waste the land, so that your enemies who dwell in it will be appalled.

Leviticus 26:33

But I will scatter you among the nations and will draw out a sword after you as your land becomes desolate and your cities are laid waste.

Leviticus 26:34

Then the land shall enjoy its Sabbaths all the days it lies desolate, while you are in the land of your enemies. At that time the land will rest and enjoy its Sabbaths.

Deuteronomy 29:19

because when such a person hears the words of this oath, he invokes a blessing on himself, saying, ‘I will have peace, even though I walk in the stubbornness of my own heart.’ This will bring disaster on the watered land as well as the dry.

Deuteronomy 29:20

The LORD will never be willing to forgive him. Instead, His anger and jealousy will burn against that man, and every curse written in this book will fall upon him. The LORD will blot out his name from under heaven

All its soil will be a burning waste of sulfur and salt, unsown and unproductive, with no plant growing on it, just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His fierce anger.

Deuteronomy 29:24

So all the nations will ask, ‘Why has the LORD done such a thing to this land? Why this great outburst of anger?’

Deuteronomy 29:25

And the people will answer, ‘It is because they abandoned the covenant of the LORD, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt.

Deuteronomy 29:26

Therefore the anger of the LORD burned against this land, and He brought upon it every curse written in this book.

Deuteronomy 29:28

When the LORD saw this, He rejected them, provoked to anger by His sons and daughters.

They have provoked My jealousy by that which is not God; they have enraged Me with their worthless idols. So I will make them jealous by those who are not a people; I will make them angry by a nation without understanding.

For a fire has been kindled by My anger, and it burns to the depths of Sheol; it consumes the earth and its produce, and scorches the foundations of the mountains.

Deuteronomy 32:23

I will heap disasters upon them; I will spend My arrows against them.

Deuteronomy 32:24

They will be wasted from hunger and ravaged by pestilence and bitter plague; I will send the fangs of wild beasts against them, with the venom of vipers that slither in the dust.

Deuteronomy 32:25

Outside, the sword will take their children, and inside, terror will strike the young man and the young woman, the infant and the gray-haired man.
