Daniel 5:8-10
Lexham English Bible
8 Then all the wise men of the king came in, but they were not able to read the writing or to make known its explanation.[a] 9 Then the king, Belshazzar, became greatly terrified, and his facial features[b] changed upon him, and his lords[c] were perplexed.
10 Because of the words of the king and his lords,[d] the queen came into the banqueting hall[e] and the queen spoke up[f] and said, “O king, live forever,[g] and let not your thoughts terrify you and do not let your facial expressions grow pale.[h]
