Daniel 5:22-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²² Thou also his son, O Baltasar, hast not humbled thy heart, whereas thou knewest all these things:

²³ But hast lifted thyself up against the Lord of heaven: and the vessels of his house have been brought before thee: and thou, and thy nobles, and thy wives, and thy concubines have drunk wine in them: and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and of gold, and of brass, of iron, and of wood, and of stone, that neither see, nor hear, nor feel: but the God who hath thy breath in his hand, and all thy ways, thou hast not glorified.

²⁴ Wherefore he hath sent the part of the hand which hath written this that is set down.
