Daniel 5:25-31 ▼

25 “This is the writing that was inscribed: , , and

26 , God has numbered your kingdom and put an end to it;

27 , you have been weighed on the scales and found wanting;

28 , your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”

29 Then by order of Belshazzar they clothed Daniel in purple, with a chain of gold around his neck, and proclaimed him third in governing the kingdom.

30 That very night Belshazzar, the Chaldean king, was slain:

31 And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom at the age of sixty-two.
