Daniel 5:7-9

7The king cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spoke, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whoever shall read this writing, and show me the interpretation of it, shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.12 8Then came in all the king’s wise men : but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation of it. 9Then was the king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his lords were confused.3
