And he hath strengthened a covenant with many--one week, and <FI>in<Fi> the midst of the week he causeth sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even till the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.'
Daniel 9:25 And thou dost know, and dost consider wisely, from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem till Messiah the Leader <FI>is<Fi> seven weeks, and sixty and two weeks: the broad place hath been built again, and the rampart, even in the distress of the times.
Daniel 9:26 And after the sixty and two weeks, cut off is Messiah, and the city and the holy place are not his, the Leader who hath come doth destroy the people; and its end <FI>is<Fi> with a flood, and till the end <FI>is<Fi> war, determined <FI> are<Fi> desolations.
Daniel 9:27 And he hath strengthened a covenant with many--one week, and <FI>in<Fi> the midst of the week he causeth sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even till the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.'
The verse centers on "hath", "strengthened", "covenant", "many--one", "week", "midst", and "causeth". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "hath" and "strengthened", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The prior verse says "And after the sixty and two weeks...", giving immediate footing for "hath" and "strengthened". In Daniel context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "hath" and "strengthened" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
