Daniel 5:24-30 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

24. Then the hand was sent from Him and this inscription was written out.

25. "Now this is the inscription that was written out: 'MENĒ, MENĒ, TEKĒL, UPHARSIN.'

26. This 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 over to the Medes and Persians."

29. Then 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.

30. That same night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was slain.
