Daniel 5:22-29

22And you, his son, O Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart (mind), even though you knew all this.

23And you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven, and the vessels of His house have been brought before you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines have been drinking wine from them; and you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which do not see or hear or understand. But the God who holds in His hand your breath of life and your ways you have not honored and glorified [but have dishonored and defied].

24Then the hand was sent from the presence [of the Most High God], and this inscription was written:

25“This is the inscription that was written, ‘mene, mene, tekel, upharsin [numbered, numbered, weighed, and divided].’

26This is the interpretation of the message: ‘mene’—God has numbered the days of your kingdom and put an end to it;

27‘tekel’—you have been weighed on the scales [of righteousness] and found deficient;

28‘peres’—your kingdom has been divided and given over to the Medes and Persians.”

29Then Belshazzar gave the command, and Daniel was clothed with purple and a chain of gold was put around his neck, and a proclamation concerning him was issued [declaring] that he now had authority as the third ruler in the kingdom.
