1 “In the first year of Darius, son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, who has been made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans,
1 EN el año primero de Darío hijo de Assuero, de la nación de los Medos, el cual fué puesto por rey sobre el reino de los Caldeos;
2 in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, have understood by scrolls the number of the years (in that a word of YHWH has been to Jeremiah the prophet), concerning the fulfilling of the desolations of Jerusalem—seventy years;
2 En el año primero de su reinado, yo Daniel miré atentamente en los libros el número de los años, del cual habló Jehová al profeta Jeremías, que había de concluir la asolación de Jerusalem en setenta años.
3 and I set my face toward the Lord God, to seek [by] prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.
3 Y volví mi rostro al Señor Dios, buscándole en oración y ruego, en ayuno, y cilicio, y ceniza.
4 And I pray to my God YHWH, and confess, and say: Ah, now, O Lord God, the great and the fearful, keeping the covenant and the kindness to those loving Him and to those keeping His commands;
4 Y oré á Jehová mi Dios, y confesé, y dije: Ahora Señor, Dios grande, digno de ser temido, que guardas el pacto y la misericordia con los que te aman y guardan tus mandamientos;
5 we have sinned, and done perversely, and done wickedly, and rebelled, to turn aside from Your commands, and from Your judgments:
5 Hemos pecado, hemos hecho iniquidad, hemos obrado impíamente, y hemos sido rebeldes, y nos hemos apartado de tus mandamientos y de tus juicios.
6 and we have not listened to Your servants, the prophets, who have spoken in Your Name to our kings, our heads, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
6 No hemos obedecido á tus siervos los profetas, que en tu nombre hablaron á nuestros reyes, y á nuestros príncipes, á nuestros padres, y á todo el pueblo de la tierra.
7 To You, O Lord, [is] the righteousness, and to us the shame of face, as [at] this day, to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to all Israel, who are near, and who are far off, in all the lands to where You have driven them, in their trespass that they have trespassed against You.
7 Tuya es, Señor, la justicia, y nuestra la confusión de rostro, como en el día de hoy á todo hombre de Judá, y á los moradores de Jerusalem, y á todo Israel, á los de cerca y á los de lejos, en todas las tierras á donde los has echado á causa de su rebelión con que contra ti se rebelaron.
8 O Lord, to us [is] the shame of face, to our kings, to our heads, and to our fathers, in that we have sinned against You.
8 Oh Jehová, nuestra es la confusión de rostro, de nuestros reyes, de nuestros príncipes, y de nuestros padres; porque contra ti pecamos.
9 To the Lord our God [are] the mercies and the forgivenesses, for we have rebelled against Him,
9 De Jehová nuestro Dios es el tener misericordia, y el perdonar, aunque contra él nos hemos rebelado;
10 and have not listened to the voice of our God YHWH, to walk in His laws, that He has set before us by the hand of His servants the prophets;
10 Y no obedecimos á la voz de Jehová nuestro Dios, para andar en sus leyes, las cuales puso él delante de nosotros por mano de sus siervos los profetas.
11 and all Israel has transgressed Your law, to turn aside so as not to listen to Your voice; and poured on us is the execration, and the oath, that is written in the Law of Moses, servant of God, because we have sinned against Him.
11 Y todo Israel traspasó tu ley apartándose para no oir tu voz: por lo cual ha fluído sobre nosotros la maldición, y el juramento que está escrito en la ley de Moisés, siervo de Dios; porque contra él pecamos.
12 And He confirms His words that He has spoken against us, and against our judges who have judged us, to bring great calamity on us, in that it has not been done under the whole heavens as it has been done in Jerusalem,
12 Y él ha verificado su palabra que habló sobre nosotros, y sobre nuestros jueces que nos gobernaron, trayendo sobre nosotros tan grande mal; que nunca fué hecho debajo del cielo como el que fué hecho en Jerusalem.
13 as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this evil has come on us, and we have not appeased the face of our God YHWH to turn back from our iniquities, and to act wisely in Your truth.
13 Según está escrito en la ley de Moisés, todo aqueste mal vino sobre nosotros: y no hemos rogado á la faz de Jehová nuestro Dios, para convertirnos de nuestras maldades, y entender tu verdad.
14 And YHWH watches for the evil, and brings it on us, for our God YHWH is righteous concerning all His works that He has done, and we have not listened to His voice.
14 Veló por tanto Jehová sobre el mal, y trájolo sobre nosotros; porque justo es Jehová nuestro Dios en todas sus obras que hizo, porque no obedecimos á su voz.
15 And now, O Lord our God, who has brought forth Your people from the land of Egypt by a strong hand, and makes for Yourself a name as at this day, we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
15 Ahora pues, Señor Dios nuestro, que sacaste tu pueblo de la tierra de Egipto con mano poderosa, y te hiciste nombre cual en este día; hemos pecado, impíamente hemos hecho.
16 O Lord, according to all Your righteous acts, please let Your anger and Your fury turn back from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain, for by our sins, and by the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people [are] for a reproach to all our neighbors;
16 Oh Señor, según todas tus justicias, apártese ahora tu ira y tu furor de sobre tu ciudad Jerusalem, tu santo monte: porque á causa de nuestros pecados, y por la maldad de nuestros padres, Jerusalem y tu pueblo dados son en oprobio á todos en derredor nuestro.
17 and now, listen, O our God, to the prayer of Your servant, and to his supplication, and cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary that [is] desolate, for the Lord’s sake.
17 Ahora pues, Dios nuestro, oye la oración de tu siervo, y sus ruegos, y haz que tu rostro resplandezca sobre tu santuario asolado, por amor del Señor.
18 Incline, O my God, Your ear, and hear, open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city on which Your Name is called; for not for our righteous acts are we causing our supplications to fall before You, but for Your mercies that [are] many.
18 Inclina, oh Dios mío, tu oído, y oye; abre tus ojos, y mira nuestros asolamientos, y la ciudad sobre la cual es llamado tu nombre: porque no derramamos nuestros ruegos ante tu acatamiento [confiados] en nuestras justicias, sino en tus muchas miseraciones.
19 O Lord, hear, O Lord, forgive; O Lord, attend and do; do not delay, for Your own sake, O my God, for Your Name is called on Your city, and on Your people.
19 Oye, Señor; oh Señor, perdona; presta oído, Señor, y haz; no pongas dilación, por amor de ti mismo, Dios mío: porque tu nombre es llamado sobre tu ciudad y sobre tu pueblo.
20 And while I am speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin, and the sin of my people Israel, and causing my supplication to fall before my God YHWH, for the holy mountain of my God,
20 Aun estaba hablando, y orando, y confesando mi pecado y el pecado de mi pueblo Israel, y derramaba mi ruego delante de Jehová mi Dios por el monte santo de mi Dios;
21 indeed, while I am speaking in prayer, then that one Gabriel, whom I had seen in vision at the commencement, being caused to fly swiftly, is coming to me at the time of the evening present.
21 Aun estaba hablando en oración, y aquel varón Gabriel, al cual había visto en visión al principio, volando con presteza, me tocó como á la hora del sacrificio de la tarde.
22 And he gives understanding, and speaks with me, and says, O Daniel, now I have come forth to cause you to consider understanding wisely;
22 E hízome entender, y habló conmigo, y dijo: Daniel, ahora he salido para hacerte entender la declaración.
23 at the commencement of your supplications the word has come forth, and I have come to declare [it], for you [are] greatly desired, and understand concerning the matter, and consider concerning the appearance.
23 Al principio de tus ruegos salió la palabra, y yo he venido para enseñártela, porque tú eres [varón] de deseos. Entiende pues la palabra, y entiende la visión.
24 Seventy periods of seven are determined for your people and for your holy city, to shut up the transgression, and to seal up sins, and to cover iniquity, and to bring in continuous righteousness, and to seal up vision and prophet, and to anoint the Holy of Holies.
24 Setenta semanas están determinadas sobre tu pueblo y sobre tu santa ciudad, para acabar la prevaricación, y concluir el pecado, y expiar la iniquidad; y para traer la justicia de los siglos, y sellar la visión y la profecía, y ungir al Santo de los santos.
25 And you know, and consider wisely, from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem until Messiah the Leader [is] seven periods of seven, and sixty-two periods of seven: the broad place has been built again, and the rampart, even in the distress of the times.
25 Sepas pues y entiendas, que desde la salida de la palabra para restaurar y edificar á Jerusalem hasta el Mesías Príncipe, habrá siete semanas, y sesenta y dos semanas; tornaráse á edificar la plaza y el muro en tiempos angustiosos.
26 And after the sixty-two periods of seven, Messiah is cut off, but not for Himself, and the people of the leader who is coming destroy the city and the holy place; and its end [is] with a flood, and until the end [is] war, [and] desolations [are] determined.
26 Y después de las sesenta y dos semanas se quitará la vida al Mesías, y no por sí: y el pueblo de un príncipe que ha de venir, destruirá á la ciudad y el santuario; con inundación será el fin de ella, y hasta el fin de la guerra será talada con asolamientos.
27 And he has strengthened a covenant with many [for] one period of seven, and [in] the midst of the period of seven he causes sacrifice and present to cease, and by the wing of abominations he is making desolate, even until the consummation, and that which is determined is poured on the desolate one.”
27 Y en otra semana confirmará el pacto á muchos, y á la mitad de la semana hará cesar el sacrificio y la ofrenda: después con la muchedumbre de las abominaciones [será] el desolar, y [esto] hasta una entera consumación; y derramaráse la [ya] determinada sobre el [pueblo] asolado.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… pure sacrifice unto God: "And in the midst of the week," he says, "the sacrifice and the libation shall be taken away, and the abomination of desolation [shall be brought] into the temple: even unto the consummation of the time shall the desolation be complete." Now three years and six months constitute the half-week.
… with Daniel says, and do thou now mark the words, And thou shalt know and understand: From the going forth of the word for making answer, and for the building of Jerusalem, until Messiah the Prince are seven weeks and three score and two weeks.
