Belshazzar H1113 the king H4430 made H5648 a great H7229 feast H3900 to a thousand H506 of his lords H7261 , and drank H8355 wine H2562 before H6903 the thousand H506 .
Belshazzar H1113 , while he tasted H2942 the wine H2562 , commanded H560 to bring H858 the golden H1722 and silver H3702 vessels H3984 which H1768 his father H2 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 had taken out H5312 of H4481 the temple H1965 which H1768 [ was ] in Jerusalem H3390 ; that the king H4430 , and his princes H7261 , his wives H7695 , and his concubines H3904 , might drink H8355 therein .
Then H116 they brought H858 the golden H1722 vessels H3984 that H1768 were taken out H5312 of H4481 the temple H1965 of H1768 the house H1005 of God H426 which H1768 [ was ] at Jerusalem H3390 ; and the king H4430 , and his princes H7261 , his wives H7695 , and his concubines H3904 , drank H8355 in them .
They drank H8355 wine H2562 , and praised H7624 the gods H426 of gold H1722 , and of silver H3702 , of brass H5174 , of iron H6523 , of wood H636 , and of stone H69 .
In the same hour H8160 came forth H5312 fingers H677 of H1768 a man H606 \'s hand H3028 , and wrote H3790 over against H6903 the candlestick H5043 upon H5922 the plaster H1528 of H1768 the wall H3797 of H1768 the king H4430 \'s palace H1965 : and the king H4430 saw H2370 the part H6447 of the hand H3028 that H1768 wrote H3790 .
Then H116 the king H4430 \'s countenance H2122 was changed H8133 , and his thoughts H7476 troubled H927 him , so that the joints H7001 of his loins H2783 were loosed H8271 , and his knees H755 smote H5368 one H1668 against another H1668 .
The king H4430 cried H7123 aloud H2429 to bring in H5924 the astrologers H826 , the Chaldeans H3779 , and the soothsayers H1505 . [ And ] the king H4430 spoke H6032 , and said H560 to the wise H2445 [ men ] of Babylon H895 , Whosoever H3606 shall read H7123 this H1836 writing H3792 , and show H2324 me the interpretation H6591 thereof , shall be clothed H3848 with scarlet H711 , and [ have ] a chain H2002 of H1768 gold H1722 about H5922 his neck H6676 , and shall be the third ruler H7981 in the kingdom H4437 .
Then H116 came in H5954 all H3606 the king H4430 \'s wise H2445 [ men ] : but they could H3546 not H3809 read H7123 the writing H3792 , nor make known H3046 to the king H4430 the interpretation H6591 thereof .
Then H116 was king H4430 Belshazzar H1113 greatly H7690 troubled H927 , and his countenance H2122 was changed H8133 in H5922 him , and his lords H7261 were astonished H7672 .
[ Now ] the queen H4433 , by reason of H6903 the words H4406 of the king H4430 and his lords H7261 , came H5954 into the banquet H4961 house H1005 : [ and ] the queen H4433 spoke H6032 and said H560 , O king H4430 , live H2418 forever H5957 : let not H409 thy thoughts H7476 trouble H927 thee , nor H409 let thy countenance H2122 be changed H8133 :
There is H383 a man H1400 in thy kingdom H4437 , in whom H1768 [ is ] the spirit H7308 of the holy H6922 gods H426 ; and in the days H3118 of thy father H2 light H5094 and understanding H7924 and wisdom H2452 , like the wisdom H2452 of the gods H426 , was found H7912 in him ; whom the king H4430 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 thy father H2 , the king H4430 , [ I ] [ say ] , thy father H2 , made H6966 master H7229 of the magicians H2749 , astrologers H826 , Chaldeans H3779 , [ and ] soothsayers H1505 ;
Forasmuch as an excellent H3493 spirit H7308 , and knowledge H4486 , and understanding H7924 , interpreting H6591 of dreams H2493 , and showing H263 of hard sentences H280 , and dissolving H8271 of doubts H7001 , were found H7912 in the same Daniel H1841 , whom H1768 the king H4430 named H7761 Belteshazzar H1096 : now H3705 let Daniel H1841 be called H7123 , and he will show H2324 the interpretation H6591 .
Then H116 was Daniel H1841 brought in H5954 before H6925 the king H4430 . [ And ] the king H4430 spoke H6032 and said H560 unto Daniel H1841 , [ Art ] thou H607 that H1932 Daniel H1841 , which H1768 [ art ] of H4481 the children H1123 of the captivity H1547 of H1768 Judah H3061 , whom H1768 the king H4430 my father H2 brought out H858 of H4481 Jewry H3061 ?
I have even heard H8086 of H5922 thee , that H1768 the spirit H7308 of the gods H426 [ is ] in thee , and [ that ] light H5094 and understanding H7924 and excellent H3493 wisdom H2452 is found H7912 in thee .
And now H3705 the wise H2445 [ men ] , the astrologers H826 , have been brought in H5954 before H6925 me , that H1768 they should read H7123 this H1836 writing H3792 , and make known H3046 unto me the interpretation H6591 thereof : but they could H3546 not H3809 show H2324 the interpretation H6591 of the thing H4406 :
And I H576 have heard H8086 of H5922 thee , that H1768 thou canst H3202 make H6590 interpretations H6591 , and dissolve H8271 doubts H7001 : now H3705 if H2006 thou canst H3202 read H7123 the writing H3792 , and make known H3046 to me the interpretation H6591 thereof , thou shalt be clothed H3848 with scarlet H711 , and [ have ] a chain H2002 of H1768 gold H1722 about H5922 thy neck H6676 , and shalt be the third ruler H7981 in the kingdom H4437 .
Then H116 Daniel H1841 answered H6032 and said H560 before H6925 the king H4430 , Let thy gifts H4978 be H1934 to thyself , and give H3052 thy rewards H5023 to another H321 ; yet H1297 I will read H7123 the writing H3792 unto the king H4430 , and make known H3046 to him the interpretation H6591 .
O thou H607 king H4430 , the most high H5943 God H426 gave H3052 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 thy father H2 a kingdom H4437 , and majesty H7238 , and glory H3367 , and honor H1923 :
And for H4481 the majesty H7238 that H1768 he gave H3052 him , all H3606 people H5972 , nations H524 , and languages H3961 , trembled H1934 and feared H1763 before H4481 him : whom H1768 he would he slew H1934 ; and whom H1768 he would he kept alive H1934 ; and whom H1768 he would he set up H1934 ; and whom H1768 he would he put down H1934 .
But when H1768 his heart H3825 was lifted up H7313 , and his mind H7308 hardened H8631 in pride H2103 , he was deposed H5182 from H4481 his kingly H4437 throne H3764 , and they took H5709 his glory H3367 from H4481 him :
And he was driven H2957 from H4481 the sons H1123 of men H606 ; and his heart H3825 was made H7739 like H5974 the beasts H2423 , and his dwelling H4070 [ was ] with H5974 the wild asses H6167 : they fed H2939 him with grass H6211 like oxen H8450 , and his body H1655 was wet H6647 with the dew H4481 of heaven H8065 ; till H5705 he knew H3046 that H1768 the most high H5943 God H426 ruled H7990 in the kingdom H4437 of men H606 , and [ that ] he appointeth H6966 over H5922 it whomsoever H4479 he will H6634 .
And thou H607 his son H1247 , O Belshazzar H1113 , hast not H3809 humbled H8214 thine heart H3825 , though H3606 thou knewest H3046 all H3606 this H1836 ;
But hast lifted up thyself H7313 against H5922 the Lord H4756 of heaven H8065 ; and they have brought H858 the vessels H3984 of H1768 his house H1005 before H6925 thee , and thou H607 , and thy lords H7261 , thy wives H7695 , and thy concubines H3904 , have drunk H8355 wine H2562 in them ; and thou hast praised H7624 the gods H426 of silver H3702 , and gold H1722 , of brass H5174 , iron H6523 , wood H636 , and stone H69 , which H1768 see H2370 not H3809 , nor H3809 hear H8086 , nor H3809 know H3046 : and the God H426 in whose H1768 hand H3028 thy breath H5396 [ is ] , and whose [ are ] all H3606 thy ways H735 , hast thou not H3809 glorified H1922 :
Then H116 commanded H560 Belshazzar H1113 , and they clothed H3848 Daniel H1841 with scarlet H711 , and [ put ] a chain H2002 of H1768 gold H1722 about H5922 his neck H6676 , and made a proclamation H3745 concerning H5922 him , that H1768 he should be H1934 the third H8531 ruler H7990 in the kingdom H4437 .
