Daniel 5:3-6

3So they brought in the gold vessels that had been taken from the temple, the house of God in Jerusalem, and the king and his nobles, wives, and concubines drank from them.

4They drank the wine and praised their gods made of gold and silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone.

5At that moment the fingers of a man’s hand appeared and began writing on the plaster of the king’s palace wall next to the lampstand. As the king watched the hand that was writing,

6his face turned pale, and his thoughts so terrified him that he soiled himself and his knees knocked together.
