Daniel 5:23-30

JuliaSmith(i) 23 And against the Lord of the heavens thou didst lift up thyself; and for the vessels of his house they brought before thee, and thou and thy nobles, and thy wives, and thy concubines, drinking wine in them; and to the gods of silver and gold, brass, iron, wood, and stone, who see not, and hear not, and know not, thou didst praise: and to the God whom thy breath in his hand, and all thy ways to him, thou didst not honor. 24 At that time from before him was sent the palm of the hand, and this writing written. 25 And this the writing that was written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL and PHARSIN. 26 This the interpretation of the word: Mene; God numbered thy kingdom and completed it. 27 Tekel; Thou shalt be weighed in the balances and be found wanting. 28 Pharsin; Thy kingdom was divided, and it shall be given to the Medes and to Persia. 29 At that time Belshazzar said, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and a necklace of gold upon his neck, and they cried out concerning him, for him to rule the third in the kingdom. 30 In that night Belshazzar king of the Chaldeans was killed.
