Daniel 5:25-30

Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

25“Now this is the inscription that was written:

‘Menē, Menē, Tekēl, Upharsin.’

26This is the interpretation of the message: ‘Menē’—God has numbered your kingdom and put an end to it. 27‘Tekēl’—you have been weighed on the scales and found deficient. 28‘Perēs’—your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”

29Then Belshazzar gave orders, and they clothed Daniel with purple and put a necklace of gold around his neck, and issued a proclamation concerning him that he now had authority as the third ruler in the kingdom.

30That same night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was killed.
