Daniel 5:24-29

24Then was the part of the hand sent from before him, and this writing was inscribed.

25And this is the writing that was inscribed: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. 26This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and brought it to an end. 27TEKEL; thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting. 28PERES; thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

29Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
