Daniel 5:29
Verse 29 of 31. The 5th of 12 chapters in Daniel, in The Major Prophets.
25“This is the writing that was inscribed: ‘MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.’
26“This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE: God has counted your kingdom, and brought it to an end.
27TEKEL: you are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting.
28PERES: your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.”
29Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
30In that night Belshazzar the Chaldean King was slain.
31Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old.
