26 · This verse (above)

27And he will make strong a covenant with the many for one week; and in the middle of the week he will make sacrifice and offering cease; and on the wing of detestable things will come one who makes desolate, even until the complete destruction that is decreed is poured out on the one who makes desolate.”
