Psalm 22:16 KJV (Read this whole chapter, it prophetically speaks of the, Lamb of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.)
For dogs have compassed Me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed Me: they pierced My hands and My feet.

Daniel 9:20-27 NLT
20 I (Daniel) went on praying and confessing my sin and the sin of my people, pleading with the Lord my God for Jerusalem, His holy mountain.
21 As I was praying, Gabriel, whom I had seen in the earlier vision, came swiftly to me at the time of the evening sacrifice.
22 He explained to me, “Daniel, I have come here to give you insight and understanding.
23 The moment you began praying, a command was given. And now I am here to tell you what it was, for you are very precious to God. Listen carefully so that you can understand the meaning of your vision.

24 “A period of seventy sets of seven has been decreed for your people and your holy city to finish their rebellion, to put an end to their sin, to atone for their guilt, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to confirm the prophetic vision, and to anoint the Most Holy Place.
25 Now listen and understand! Seven sets of seven plus sixty-two sets of seven will pass from the time the command is given to rebuild Jerusalem until a ruler—the Anointed One—comes. Jerusalem will be rebuilt with streets and strong defenses, despite the perilous times.

26 “After this period of sixty-two sets of seven, the Anointed One (The Lamb of God, the Lord Jesus Christ.)will be killed, appearing to have accomplished nothing, and a ruler will arise (anti-Christ) whose armies will destroy the city and the Temple. The end will come with a flood, and war and its miseries are decreed from that time to the very end.
27 The ruler will make a treaty with the people for a period of one set of seven, but after half this time (Three and one half years), he will put an end to the sacrifices and offerings. And as a climax to all his terrible deeds, he will set up a sacrilegious object that causes desecration (Abomination of Desolation), until the fate decreed for this defiler is finally poured out on him.”

Zechariah 12:10-14 NLT
10 “Then I will pour out a spirit of grace and prayer on the family of David and on the people of Jerusalem. They will look on Me whom they have pierced and mourn for Him as for an Only Son. They will grieve bitterly for Him as for a Firstborn Son who has died.
11 The sorrow and mourning in Jerusalem on that day will be like the great mourning for Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddo.
12 “All Israel will mourn, each clan by itself, and with the husbands separate from their wives. The clan of David will mourn alone, as will the clan of Nathan,
13 the clan of Levi, and the clan of Shimei.
14 Each of the surviving clans from Judah will mourn separately, and with the husbands separate from their wives.

And when they had crucified Him, they parted His garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took His garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also His coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
