22 “But you his son, Belshazzar, ahave not humbled your heart, although you knew all this.  
23 aAnd you have lifted yourself up against the Lord of heaven. They have brought the bvessels of His house before you, and you and your lords, your wives and your concubines, have drunk wine from them. And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, cwhich do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand dand owns all your ways, you have not glorified.  
24 Then the fingers of the hand were sent from Him, and this writing was written.  
25 “And this is the inscription that was written: 1MENE, MENE,2 TEKEL, UPHARSIN.  
26 This is the interpretation of each word. MENE: God has numbered your kingdom, and finished it;
27 TEKEL: aYou have been weighed in the balances, and found wanting;  
28 PERES: Your kingdom has been divided, and given to the aMedes and bPersians.”
