Daniel 5:22-31
22And thou, Belshazzar, his son, hast not humbled thy heart, although thou knewest all this; 23but hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of the heavens; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy nobles, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the 1gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the 2God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified: 24then from before him was sent the part of the hand, and this writing hath been written. 25And this is the writing that is written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. 26This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE, 3God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it; 27TEKEL, Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting; 28PERES, Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians. 29Then Belshazzar commanded, 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. 30In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain. 31And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, [being] about sixty-two years old.
