Daniel 5
5:1 Belshazzar <G 1113> the king <G 4430> made <G
5648> a great
<G 7227> feast <G 3900> to a thousand <G 0506>
of his lords <G
7261>, and drank <G 8355> wine <G 2562> before <
G 6903> the
thousand <G 0506>.
5:2 Belshazzar <G 1113>, whiles he tasted <G 2942>
the wine <G
2562>, commanded <G 0560> to bring <G 0858> the
golden <G 1722>
and silver <G 3702> vessels <G 3984> which <G
1768> his father
<G 2> Nebuchadnezzar <G 5020> had taken <G 5312>
out of the
temple <G 1965> which <G 1768> [was] in Jerusalem <
G 3390>; that
the king <G 4430>, and his princes <G 7261>, his
wives <G 7695>,
and his concubines <G 3904>, might drink <G 8355>
therein.
5:3 Then <G 0116> they brought <G 0858> the golden
<G 1722>
vessels <G 3984> that were taken <G 5312> out of the
temple <G
1965> of the house <G 1005> of God <G 0426> which
<G 1768> [was]
at Jerusalem <G 3390>; and the king <G 4430>, and his
princes <G
7261>, his wives <G 7695>, and his concubines <G
3904>, drank <G
8355> in them.
5:4 They drank <G 8355> wine <G 2562>, and praised
<G 7624> the
gods <G 0426> of gold <G 1722>, and of silver <G
3702>, of brass
<G 5174>, of iron <G 6523>, of wood <G 0636>,
and of stone <G
69>.
5:5 In the same hour <G 8160> came <G 5312> forth <
G 5312>
fingers <G 0677> of a man's <G 0606> hand <G
3028>, and wrote <G
3790> over <G 6903> against <G 6903> the
candlestick <G 5043>
upon the plaister <G 1528> of the wall <G 3797> of
the king's <G
4430> palace <G 1965>: and the king <G 4430> saw
<G 2370> the
part <G 6447> of the hand <G 3028> that wrote <G
3790>.
5:6 Then <G 0116> the king's <G 4430> countenance <
G 2122> was
changed <G 8133>, and his thoughts <G 7476> troubled
<G 0927>
him, so that the joints <G 7001> of his loins <G 2788>
were
loosed <G 8271>, and his knees <G 0755> smote <G
5368> one <G
1668> against another <G 1668>.
5:7 The king <G 4430> cried <G 7123> aloud <G
2429> to bring <G
5924> in the astrologers <G 0826>, the Chaldeans <G
3779>, and
the soothsayers <G 1505>. [And] the king <G 4430>
spake <G 6032>,
and said <G 0560> to the wise <G 2445> [men] of
Babylon <G
0895>, Whosoever <G 3605> shall read <G 7123> this
<G 1836>
writing <G 3792>, and shew <G 2324> me the
interpretation <G
6591> thereof, shall be clothed <G 3848> with scarlet
<G 0711>,
and [have] a chain <G 2002> of gold <G 1722> about
<G 5922> his
neck <G 6676>, and shall be the third <G 8523> ruler
<G 7981> in
the kingdom <G 4437>.
5:8 Then <G 0116> came <G 5954> in all <G 3606>
the king's <G
4430> wise <G 2445> [men]: but they could <G 3546>
not read <G
7123> the writing <G 3792>, nor make known <G 3046>
to the king
<G 4430> the interpretation <G 6591> thereof.
5:9 Then <G 0116> was king <G 4430> Belshazzar <G
1113> greatly
<G 7690> troubled <G 0927>, and his countenance <G
2122> was
changed <G 8133> in him, and his lords <G 7261> were
astonied <G
2672>.
5:10 [Now] the queen <G 4433>, by reason <G 6903> of
the words
<G 4406> of the king <G 4430> and his lords <G
7261>, came <G
5954> into the banquet <G 4961> house <G 1005>:
[and] the queen
<G 4433> spake <G 6032> and said <G 0560>, O
king <G 4430>, live
<G 2414> for ever <G 5957>: let not thy thoughts <
G 7476>
trouble <G 0927> thee, nor <G 0408> let thy
countenance <G 2122>
be changed <G 8133>:
5:11 There is a man <G 1400> in thy kingdom <G 4437>,
in whom <G
1768> [is] the spirit <G 7308> of the holy <G 6922>
gods <G
0426>; and in the days <G 3118> of thy father <G 2>
light <G
5094> and understanding <G 7924> and wisdom <G
2452>, like the
wisdom <G 2452> of the gods <G 0426>, was found <G
7912> in him;
whom the king <G 4430> Nebuchadnezzar <G 5020> thy
father <G 2>,
the king <G 4430>, [I say], thy father <G 2>, made
master <G
0729> of the magicians <G 2749>, astrologers <G
0826>, Chaldeans
<G 3779>, [and] soothsayers <G 1505>;
5:12 Forasmuch as an excellent <G 3493> spirit <G
7308>, and
knowledge <G 0998>, and understanding <G 7924>,
interpreting <G
6591> of dreams <G 2493>, and shewing <G 0263> of
hard <G 0280>
sentences <G 0280>, and dissolving <G 8271> of doubts
<G 7001>,
were found <G 7912> in the same Daniel <G 1841>, whom
<G 1768>
the king <G 4430> named <G 8036> Belteshazzar <G
1096>: now <G
3705> let Daniel <G 1841> be called <G 7123>, and
he will shew
<G 5046> the interpretation <G 6591>.
5:13 Then <G 0116> was Daniel <G 1841> brought <G
5954> in
before <G 6925> the king <G 4430>. [And] the king <
G 4430> spake
<G 6032> and said <G 0560> unto Daniel <G 1841>,
[Art] thou that
Daniel <G 1841>, which <G 1768> [art] of the children
<G 1123>
of the captivity <G 1547> of Judah <G 3061>, whom <
G 1768> the
king <G 4430> my father <G 2> brought <G 0858>
out of Jewry <G
3061>?
5:14 I have even heard <G 8086> of thee, that the spirit
<G
7308> of the gods <G 0426> [is] in thee, and [that]
light <G
5094> and understanding <G 7924> and excellent <G
3493> wisdom
<G 2452> is found <G 7912> in thee.
5:15 And now <G 3705> the wise <G 2445> [men], the
astrologers
<G 0826>, have been brought <G 5954> in before <G
6925> me, that
they should read <G 7123> this <G 1836> writing <G
3792>, and
make known <G 3046> unto me the interpretation <G
6591> thereof:
but they could <G 5346> not shew <G 2324> the
interpretation <G
6591> of the thing <G 4406>:
5:16 And I have heard <G 8086> of thee, that thou canst <
G 3202>
make interpretations <G 6591>, and dissolve <G 8271>
doubts <G
7001>: now <G 3705> if <G 2006> thou canst <G
3202> read <G
7123> the writing <G 3792>, and make known <G 3046>
to me the
interpretation <G 6591> thereof, thou shalt be clothed <
G 3848>
with scarlet <G 0711>, and [have] a chain <G 2002> of
gold <G
1722> about <G 5922> thy neck <G 6676>, and shalt
be the third
<G 8531> ruler <G 7981> in the kingdom <G 4437>.
5:17 Then <G 0116> Daniel <G 1841> answered <G
6032> and said <G
0560> before <G 6925> the king <G 4430>, Let thy
gifts <G 4978>
be to thyself, and give <G 3052> thy rewards <G 5023>
to another
<G 0321>; yet <G 1297> I will read <G 7123> the
writing <G 3792>
unto the king <G 4430>, and make known <G 3046> to
him the
interpretation <G 6591>.
5:18 O thou king <G 4430>, the most <G 5943> high <
G 5943> God
<G 0426> gave <G 3052> Nebuchadnezzar <G 5020>
thy father <G 2>
a kingdom <G 4437>, and majesty <G 7238>, and glory
<G 3367>,
and honour <G 1923>:
5:19 And for the majesty <G 7238> that he gave <G
3052> him, all
<G 3606> people <G 5972>, nations <G 0524>, and
languages <G
3961>, trembled <G 2112> and feared <G 1763>
before him: whom <G
1768> he would <G 6634> he slew <G 6992>; and whom
<G 1768> he
would <G 6634> he kept alive <G 2418>; and whom <G
1768> he
would <G 6634> he set <G 7313> up; and whom he would
<G 6634> he
put <G 8214> down <G 8214>.
5:20 But when <G 1768> his heart <G 3825> was lifted
<G 7313> up,
and his mind <G 7307> hardened <G 8631> in pride <
G 2103>, he
was deposed <G 5182> from his kingly <G 4437> throne
<G 3764>,
and they took <G 5709> his glory <G 3367> from him:
5:21 And he was driven <G 2957> from the sons <G 1123>
of men <G
0606>; and his heart <G 3825> was made <G 7737>
like <G 5974>
the beasts <G 2423>, and his dwelling <G 4070> [was]
with the
wild <G 6167> asses <G 6167>: they fed <G 2939>
him with grass
<G 6211> like oxen <G 8450>, and his body <G
1655> was wet <G
6647> with the dew <G 2920> of heaven <G 8065>;
till <G 5704> he
knew <G 3046> that the most <G 5943> high <G
5943> God <G 0426>
ruled <G 7990> in the kingdom <G 4437> of men <G
0606>, and
[that] he appointeth <G 6966> over <G 5922> it
whomsoever he
will <G 6634>.
5:22 And thou his son <G 1247>, O Belshazzar <G 1113>,
hast not
humbled <G 8214> thine heart <G 3825>, though thou
knewest <G
3046> all <G 3606> this <G 1836>;
5:23 But hast lifted <G 7313> up thyself against <G
5922> the
Lord <G 4756> of heaven <G 8065>; and they have
brought <G 0858>
the vessels <G 3984> of his house <G 1005> before <
G 6925> thee,
and thou, and thy lords <G 7261>, thy wives <G 7695>,
and thy
concubines <G 3904>, have drunk <G 8355> wine <G
2562> in them;
and thou hast praised <G 7624> the gods <G 0426> of
silver <G
3702>, and gold <G 1722>, of brass <G 5174>, iron
<G 6523>, wood
<G 0636>, and stone <G 69>, which <G 1768> see
<G 2370> not, nor
<G 3809> hear <G 8086>, nor <G 3809> know <G
3046>: and the God
<G 0426> in whose <G 1768> hand <G 3028> thy
breath <G 5396>
[is], and whose [are] all <G 3606> thy ways <G 0735>,
hast thou
not glorified <G 1922>:
5:24 Then <G 0116> was the part <G 6447> of the hand
<G 3028>
sent <G 7972> from him; and this <G 1836> writing <
G 3792> was
written <G 7560>.
5:25 And this <G 1836> [is] the writing <G 3792> that
was
written <G 7560>, MENE <G 4484>, MENE <G 4484>,
TEKEL <G 8625>,
UPHARSIN <G 6537>.
5:26 This <G 1836> [is] the interpretation <G 6591>
of the thing
<G 4406>: MENE <G 4484>; God <G 0426> hath
numbered <G 4483> thy
kingdom <G 4437>, and finished <G 8000> it.
5:27 TEKEL <G 8625>; Thou art weighed <G 8625> in the
balances
<G 3976>, and art found <G 7912> wanting <G
2627>.
5:28 PERES <G 6537>; Thy kingdom <G 4437> is divided
<G 6537>,
and given <G 3052> to the Medes <G 4076> and Persians
<G 6540>.
5:29 Then <G 0116> commanded <G 0560> Belshazzar <
G 1113>, and
they clothed <G 3848> Daniel <G 1841> with scarlet
<G 0711>, and
[put] a chain <G 2002> of gold <G 1722> about <G
5922> his neck
<G 6676>, and made a proclamation <G 3745> concerning
<G 5922>
him, that he should be the third <G 8531> ruler <G
7990> in the
