Daniel 5:23-30

Leeser(i) 23 But against the Lord of heaven hast thou lifted thyself up; and the vessels of his house have they brought before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine from them; and the gods of silver, and gold, of copper, iron, wood, and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor know, hast thou praised; and the God in whose hand thy soul is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified: 24 Thereupon was sent from before him the part of the hand, and this writing was noted down. 25 And this is the writing that was noted down, M’ne, M’ne, T’kel, Upharsin. 26 This the interpretation of the matter: M’ne, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and made an end of it. 27 T’kel, Thou least been weighed in the balances, and been found wanting. 28 P’ress; Thy kingdom hath been divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians. 29 Then gave Belshazzar the order, and they clothed Daniel with purple, with a chain of gold about his neck, and they made a proclamation concerning him, that he should rule as the third in the kingdom. 30 In that very night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.
