As the text of 967 stands it has a chiasm: "terribly will he destroy  
and he will pierce with his own strength." Note, however, that after  
AUTOU 88-Syh have a plus which is said to equal MT, similar in  
contour to the plus after FQERW 1° in 967. Munnich suggests that the  
latter is essentially a dittograph of the former:
KAIOUKENTHISXUIAUTOU = 88-Syh
KAISUNKENTHSEITHISXUIAUTOU = 967
