伯沙撒王设筵纵饮
5 伯沙撒王为他的一千大臣设摆盛筵，与这一千人对面饮酒。 2 伯沙撒欢饮之间，吩咐人将他父[a]尼布甲尼撒从耶路撒冷殿中所掠的金银器皿拿来，王与大臣、皇后、妃嫔好用这器皿饮酒。 3 于是他们把耶路撒冷神殿库房中所掠的金器皿拿来，王和大臣、皇后、妃嫔就用这器皿饮酒。 4 他们饮酒，赞美金、银、铜、铁、木、石所造的神。
忽现手指书文于壁
5 当时，忽有人的指头显出，在王宫与灯台相对的粉墙上写字。王看见写字的指头， 6 就变了脸色，心意惊惶，腰骨好像脱节，双膝彼此相碰， 7 大声吩咐将用法术的和迦勒底人并观兆的领进来，对巴比伦的哲士说：“谁能读这文字，把讲解告诉我，他必身穿紫袍，项戴金链，在我国中位列第三。” 8 于是王的一切哲士都进来，却不能读那文字，也不能把讲解告诉王。 9 伯沙撒王就甚惊惶，脸色改变，他的大臣也都惊奇。
王惊忧失色太后举召但以理
10 太后[b]因王和他大臣所说的话，就进入宴宫，说：“愿王万岁！你心意不要惊惶，脸面不要变色。 11 在你国中有一人，他里头有圣神的灵，你父在世的日子，这人心中光明，又有聪明、智慧，好像神的智慧。你父尼布甲尼撒王，就是王的父，立他为术士、用法术的和迦勒底人并观兆的领袖。 12 在他里头有美好的灵性，又有知识、聪明，能圆梦，释谜语，解疑惑。这人名叫但以理，尼布甲尼撒王又称他为伯提沙撒。现在可以召他来，他必解明这意思。”
13 但以理就被领到王前。王问但以理说：“你是被掳之犹大人中的但以理吗？就是我父王从犹大掳来的吗？ 14 我听说你里头有神的灵，心中光明，又有聪明和美好的智慧。 15 现在哲士和用法术的都领到我面前，为叫他们读这文字，把讲解告诉我，无奈他们都不能把讲解说出来。 16 我听说你善于讲解，能解疑惑，现在你若能读这文字，把讲解告诉我，就必身穿紫袍，项戴金链，在我国中位列第三。”
但以理责王狂傲拜像
17 但以理在王面前回答说：“你的赠品可以归你自己，你的赏赐可以归给别人，我却要为王读这文字，把讲解告诉王。 18 王啊，至高的神曾将国位、大权、荣耀、威严赐予你父尼布甲尼撒。 19 因神所赐他的大权，各方、各国、各族的人都在他面前战兢恐惧，他可以随意生杀，随意升降。 20 但他心高气傲，灵也刚愎，甚至行事狂傲，就被革去王位，夺去荣耀。 21 他被赶出离开世人，他的心变如兽心，与野驴同居，吃草如牛，身被天露滴湿，等他知道至高的神在人的国中掌权，凭自己的意旨立人治国。 22 伯沙撒啊，你是他的儿子[c]，你虽知道这一切，你心仍不自卑， 23 竟向天上的主自高，使人将他殿中的器皿拿到你面前，你和大臣、皇后、妃嫔用这器皿饮酒。你又赞美那不能看、不能听、无知无识，金、银、铜、铁、木、石所造的神，却没有将荣耀归于那手中有你气息，管理你一切行动的神。 24 因此，从神那里显出指头来写这文字。
解释文字
25 “所写的文字是：弥尼，弥尼，提客勒，乌法珥新。 26 讲解是这样：弥尼，就是神已经数算你国的年日到此完毕。 27 提客勒，就是你被称在天平里，显出你的亏欠。 28 毗勒斯[d]，就是你的国分裂，归于玛代人和波斯人。” 29 伯沙撒下令，人就把紫袍给但以理穿上，把金链给他戴在颈项上，又传令使他在国中位列第三。
是夕王见杀玛代人大流士得其国
30 当夜，迦勒底王伯沙撒被杀。 31 玛代人大流士年六十二岁，取了迦勒底国。

墙上写字
5 伯沙撒王盛宴款待一千大臣，与他们一同饮酒。 2 王畅饮的时候，命人将先王尼布甲尼撒从耶路撒冷圣殿中掳来的金银器皿拿来，供他与大臣、王后和妃嫔用来饮酒。 3 于是，他们把从耶路撒冷上帝殿中掳来的金器拿来，王与大臣、王后和妃嫔便用这些器皿饮酒。 4 他们一边饮酒，一边颂赞金、银、铜、铁、木、石所造的神明。
5 突然，有人手的指头出现，在灯台对面王宫的粉墙上写字。王看见那只手在写字， 6 脸色骤变，惊恐万分，两腿发软，双膝颤抖。 7 他大声传令，召来巫师、占星家和占卜者，对这些巴比伦的智者说：“谁能读墙上的字，把意思告诉我，他必身穿紫袍，颈戴金链，在国中位居第三。” 8 王所有的智者进来后，竟无人能读懂或把意思告诉王。 9 伯沙撒王愈发恐惧，脸色苍白，他的大臣都不知所措。
10 太后听到王和大臣的喊声，便来到宴会厅，对王说：“愿王万岁！不要惊慌失色。 11 你国中有一个人，他有圣洁神明的灵。先王在世时，曾发现他有神明一样的灼见、悟性和智慧。先王尼布甲尼撒立他为术士、巫师、占星家和占卜者的首领。 12 他有非凡的心智、知识和悟性，能解梦、释谜、解惑。他叫但以理，先王给他取名叫伯提沙撒。现在可以把他召来，他必能解释这些字的意思。”
13 于是，但以理被带到王面前。王问他：“你就是先王从犹大掳来的但以理吗？ 14 我听说你有神明的灵，有灼见、悟性和非凡的智慧。 15 我召智者和巫师来读这些字，为我解释字的意思，但他们都不能解释。 16 我听说你能释梦、解惑。你若能读出墙上的字，把意思告诉我，你必身穿紫袍、颈戴金链，在我的国中位居第三。”
17 但以理回答说：“你的礼物自己留着，你的赏赐可以给别人，不过我会为你读这些字，解释意思。 18 王啊，至高的上帝曾将国位、权力、尊荣、威严赐给你的先王尼布甲尼撒， 19 因为他有上帝所赐的大权，各族、各邦、各语种的人都在他面前战抖，充满恐惧。他操生杀大权，可随意擢升、罢黜。 20 但他变得心高气傲、刚愎自用、狂妄自大，因而被革除王位、剥去尊荣。 21 他从人群中被赶走，他的心变成兽心，他与野驴同住，像牛一样吃草，被天上的露水浸湿，直到他知道至高的上帝主宰世上万国，祂要把国赐给谁就赐给谁。
22 “伯沙撒啊，你是他的后裔，你虽然知道这一切事，仍不谦卑， 23 竟在天上的主面前自大，命人拿来祂殿里的器皿，供你和大臣、王后、妃嫔用来饮酒，并颂赞不能看、不能听、一无所知、用金、银、铜、铁、木、石所造的神明，却不尊崇赐你生命气息、掌管你一举一动的上帝。
24 “因此，上帝使指头出现，写下这些字， 25 就是‘弥尼，弥尼，提客勒，乌法珥新’。 26 这些字的意思是这样，弥尼——指上帝已经数算你国度的年日，使之到此为止； 27 提客勒——指你已经被放在秤上称了，发现分量不够； 28 乌法珥新[a]——指你的国要分裂，归给玛代人和波斯人。”
29 于是，伯沙撒下令给但以理穿上紫袍，戴上金项链，又宣告他在国中位居第三。 30 当夜，迦勒底王伯沙撒被杀。 31 玛代人大流士六十二岁时夺取了王权。

伯沙撒王大宴群臣
5 伯沙撒王为他的一千大臣大摆筵席，他和他们一同喝酒。 2 伯沙撒喝酒欢畅的时候，下令把他先祖尼布甲尼撒从耶路撒冷圣殿里掠取的金银器皿拿来，好让他和他的大臣、妻妾、妃嫔用这些器皿来喝酒。 3 于是人把从耶路撒冷圣殿里，就是 神的殿里，掠来的金器皿拿来；王和他的大臣、妻妾、妃嫔就用这些器皿来喝酒。 4 他们喝酒，赞美那些用金、银、铜、铁、木、石所做的神。
指头在墙上写字
5 当时，忽然有人手的指头出现，在王宫里灯台对面的粉墙上写字；王看见了那只正在写字的手掌， 6 就脸色大变，心意惊惶，两脚无力，双膝彼此相碰。 7 王大声呼叫，吩咐人把那些用法术的和迦勒底人，以及占星家都领进来；王对巴比伦的智慧人说：“谁能读这文字，又能向我解释它的意思，他必身穿紫袍，颈戴金炼，在国中掌权，位列第三。” 8 于是王所有的智慧人都进来，却不能读那文字，也不能把意思向王说明。 9 伯沙撒王就非常惊惶，脸色大变；他的大臣也都不知所措。
太后举荐但以理
10 太后因王和他的大臣所说的话，就进入宴会的大厅，对王说：“愿王万岁！你的心意不要惊惶，也不要脸色大变。 11 在你国中有一个人，他里面有圣神的灵；你先祖在世的日子，发现这人有灼见，有聪明，有智慧，好象神的智慧一样。你先祖尼布甲尼撒王，就是王的先祖，曾立他为术士、用法术的，以及迦勒底人和占星家的领袖。 12 这都因为在这但以理里面有美好的灵性，有知识，有聪明，能解梦，释谜语，能解答难题；这人尼布甲尼撒王曾给他起名叫伯提沙撒。现在可以把但以理召来，他必能解释墙上文字的意思。”
13 于是但以理被带到王面前，王问但以理说：“你就是我先王从犹大掳来的犹大人但以理吗？ 14 我听说你里面有神的灵，有灼见，有聪明，有高超的智慧。 15 现在智慧人和用法术的都被带到我面前了，我要他们读这文字，把文字的意思向我说明，可是他们都不能解释这文字的意思。 16 我听说你能解释异梦，也能解答难题。现在你若能读这文字，把它的意思向我说明，就必身穿紫袍，颈戴金炼，在国中掌权，位列第三。”
但以理直言责王
17 但以理在王面前回答说：“你的礼物可以归你自己，你的赏赐可以归给别人；我却要为王读这文字，也要把意思向王说明。 18 王啊！至高的 神曾把国位、权势、光荣和威严赐给你先祖尼布甲尼撒。 19 因 神所赐给他的权势，各国、各族和说各种语言的人，都在他面前战兢恐惧；他要杀谁，就杀谁；要谁活着，谁就可以活着；要提升谁，就提升谁；要贬低谁，就贬低谁。 20 但他心高气傲、妄自尊大的时候，就从国位上被赶下来，他的尊荣也被夺去。 21 他被赶逐，离开人群，他的心变如兽心，他和野驴同住，像牛一样吃草，身体被天露滴湿；等到他承认至高的 神在世人的国中掌权，他喜欢谁，就立谁执掌国权。 22 伯沙撒啊！你是他的子孙，你虽然知道这一切，你的心仍不谦卑， 23 竟高抬自己，敌对天上的主，使人把他殿中的器皿拿到你面前来，你和你的大臣、妻妾、妃嫔用这些器皿喝酒；你又赞美那些不能看见、不能听见、甚么都不能知道，用金、银、铜、铁、木、石所做的神，却没有把荣耀归给那手中有你的气息，和那掌管你一切命途的 神。 24 因此，有手从 神那里伸出来，写了这文字。
解释墙上文字的意义
25 “所写的文字是：‘弥尼，弥尼，提客勒，乌法珥新。’ 26 这文字的意思是这样：‘弥尼’就是 神已数算了你国度的年日，使国终止； 27 ‘提客勒’就是你被称在天平上，显出你的缺欠； 28 ‘毘勒斯’（“毘勒斯”即“乌法珥新”的单数式）就是你的国要分裂，归给玛代人和波斯人。”
29 于是伯沙撒下令，人就把紫袍给但以理穿上，把金炼戴在他的颈上，又宣告他在国中掌权，位列第三。
伯沙撒王被杀而亡国
30 当夜，迦勒底人的王伯沙撒被杀。 31 玛代人大利乌夺取了迦勒底国；那时他六十二岁。（本节在《马索拉文本》为6:1）
Daniel 5
Darby Translation
5 Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his nobles, and drank wine before the thousand.
2 Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, might drink in them.
3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken out of the temple of the house of God which was at Jerusalem; and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, drank in them.
4 They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a man's hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king's palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.
6 Then the king's countenance was changed, and his thoughts troubled him, and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees smote one against another.
7 The king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.
8 Then came in all the king's wise men, but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation.
9 Then was king Belshazzar greatly troubled, and his countenance was changed in him, and his nobles were confounded.
10 —The queen, by reason of the words of the king and his nobles, came into the banquet-house. The queen spoke and said, O king, live for ever! let not thy thoughts trouble thee, neither let thy countenance be changed.
11 There is a man in thy kingdom in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods was found in him; and the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, [even] the king thy father, made him master of the scribes, magicians, Chaldeans, [and] astrologers;
12 forasmuch as an excellent spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, interpreting of dreams, and shewing of hard sentences, and solving of problems, were found in the same Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Now let Daniel be called, and he will shew the interpretation.
13 Then was Daniel brought in before the king. The king spoke and said unto Daniel, Art thou that Daniel, of the children of the captivity of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?
14 And I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and [that] light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.
15 And now the wise men, the magicians, have been brought in before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me the interpretation thereof; but they could not shew the interpretation of the thing.
16 But I have heard of thee, that thou canst give interpretations, and solve problems. Now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom.
17 Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet will I read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
18 O thou king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnezzar thy father the kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and majesty;
19 and for the greatness that he gave him, all peoples, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew, and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he exalted, and whom he would he humbled.
20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened unto presumption, he was deposed from the throne of his kingdom, and they took his glory from him;
21 and he was driven from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses; they fed him with grass like oxen, and his body was bathed with the dew of heaven; till he knew that the Most High God ruleth over the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he will.
22 And thou, Belshazzar, his son, hast not humbled thy heart, although thou knewest all this;
23 but hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of the heavens; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy nobles, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
24 then from before him was sent the part of the hand, and this writing hath been written.
25 And this is the writing that is written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
26 This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it;
27 TEKEL, Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting;
28 PERES, Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
29 Then Belshazzar commanded, and they clothed Daniel with purple, and [put] a chain of gold about his neck, and made proclamation concerning him that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom.
30 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.
31 And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, [being] about sixty-two years old.
