Daniel 5:24-27
Common English Bible
24 “That’s why this hand was sent from God and why this message was written down. 25 This is what was written down:
mene, mene, tekel, and parsin.[a]
26 “This is the meaning of the word mene: God has numbered[b] the days of your rule. It’s over! 27 tekel means that you’ve been weighed[c] on the scales, and you don’t measure up.
