Daniel 5:27-29

International Standard Version

²⁷TEKEL: You’ve been weighed on the scales—and you don’t measure up.^[a]

²⁸PERES: Your kingdom has been divided—and will be given to the Medes and Persians.”

²⁹Then Belshazzar gave orders to clothe Daniel in purple, to place a chain of gold around his neck, and to proclaim him the third highest ruler of the kingdom.
