Daniel 5:26-31

26“Here is what these words mean: Mene Mene can mean numbered or mina (a unit of money). : God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end.

27Tekel Tekel can mean weighed or shekel. : You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting.

28Peres Peres (the singular of Parsin) can mean divided or Persia or a half mina or a half shekel. : Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”

29Then at Belshazzar’s command, Daniel was clothed in purple, a gold chain was placed around his neck, and he was proclaimed the third highest ruler in the kingdom. 30That very night Belshazzar, king of the Babylonians, Or Chaldeans was slain, 31and Darius the Mede took over the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two. In Aramaic texts this verse (5:31) is numbered 6:1.
