Daniel 5:25-28
25“Now this is the inscription that was written: ‘1Menē, 2Menē, 3Tekēl, 4Upharsin.’ 26This is the interpretation of the 5message: ‘Menē’--God has numbered your kingdom and 6put an end to it. 27‘Tekēl’--you have been 7weighed on the scales and found deficient. 28‘8Perēs’--your kingdom has been divided and given to the 9Medes and 10Persians.”
