The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et brachia ex eo stabunt, et polluent sanctuarium fortitudinis, et auferent juge sacrificium : et dabunt abominationem in desolationem.
Septuagint (Swete)
καὶ σπέρματα ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἀναστήσονται καὶ βεβηλώσουσιν τὸ ἁγίασμα τῆς δυναστείας, καὶ μεταστήσουσιν τὸν ἐνδελεχισμόν, καὶ δώσουσιν βδέλυγμα ἠφανισμένον.
Hebrew (WLC)
וּזְרֹעִ֖ים מִמֶּ֣נּוּ יַעֲמֹ֑דוּ וְחִלְּל֞וּ הַמִּקְדָּ֤שׁ הַמָּעוֹז֙ וְהֵסִ֣ירוּ הַתָּמִ֔יד וְנָתְנ֖וּ הַשִּׁקּ֥וּץ מְשׁוֹמֵֽם

Haydock's commentary

Arms, (brachia) or strong men, Apollonius, Philip, &c., (2 Machabees vi.) and likewise the senator from Antioch, who executed his decrees. (Calmet)

Abomination. The idol of Jupiter Olympius, which Antiochus ordered to be set up in the sanctuary of the temple, which is here called the sanctuary of strength, from the Almighty that was worshipped there. (Challoner)

Other idols were set up, and the people were compelled to sacrifice. (Calmet)

Yet even in the hottest persecutions some remain faithful. (Worthington)
