23and against the Lord of the heavens thou hast lifted up thyself; and the vessels of His house they have brought in before thee, and thou, and thy great men, thy wives, and thy concubines, are drinking wine with them, and gods of silver, and of gold, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone, that are not seeing, nor hearing, nor knowing, thou hast praised: and the God in whose hand [is] thy breath, and all thy ways, Him thou hast not honoured.
24`Then from before Him sent is the extremity of the hand, and the writing is noted down;
25and this [is] the writing that is noted down: Numbered, Numbered, Weighed, and Divided.
26This [is] the interpretation of the thing: Numbered -- God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it.
27Weighed -- Thou art weighed in the balances, and hast been found lacking.
28Divided -- Divided is thy kingdom, and it hath been given to the Medes and Persians.`
29Then hath Belshazzar said, and they have clothed Daniel with purple, and a bracelet of gold [is] on his neck, and they have proclaimed concerning him that he is the third ruler in the kingdom.
