Belshazzar’s Feast
5 Belshazzar the king [a]held a great (A)feast for one thousand of his nobles, and he was drinking wine in the presence of the thousand. 2 When Belshazzar tasted the wine, he said to bring the gold and silver (B)vessels which Nebuchadnezzar his [b]father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem, so that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines might drink from them. 3 Then they brought the gold vessels that had been taken out of the temple, the house of God which was in Jerusalem; and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines drank from them. 4 They (C)drank the wine and praised the gods of (D)gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood and stone.
5 Suddenly the fingers of a man’s hand came out and began writing opposite the lampstand on the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace, and the king saw the [c]back of the hand that did the writing. 6 Then the [d](E)splendor of the king’s face changed, and his thoughts alarmed him, and his (F)hip joints [e]went slack, and his (G)knees were knocking against each other. 7 The king called out loudly to bring in the (H)conjurers, the [f]Chaldeans, and the diviners. The king answered and said to the wise men of Babylon, “Any man who can read this writing and declare its interpretation to me shall be (I)clothed with purple and have a (J)necklace of gold around his neck and rule with power as [g](K)third ruler in the kingdom.” 8 Then all the king’s wise men came in, but (L)they could not read the writing or make known its interpretation to the king. 9 Then King Belshazzar was greatly (M)alarmed, and the [h](N)splendor of his face changed further, and his nobles were perplexed.
10 The queen entered the banquet [i]hall because of the words of the king and his nobles; the queen answered and said, “(O)O king, live forever! Do not let your thoughts alarm you or the [j]splendor of your face be changed. 11 There is a (P)man in your kingdom in whom is [k]a (Q)spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of your father, illumination, insight, and wisdom like the wisdom of the gods were found in him. And King Nebuchadnezzar, your father, your father [l](R)the king, set him as chief of the [m]magicians, conjurers, [n]Chaldeans, and diviners. 12 This was because an (S)extraordinary spirit, knowledge and insight, interpretation of dreams, explanation of enigmas, and [o]solving of difficult problems were found in this Daniel, whom the king named (T)Belteshazzar. Let Daniel now be summoned, and he will declare the interpretation.”
Daniel Interprets the Writing on the Wall
13 Then Daniel was brought in before the king. The king answered and said to Daniel, “Are you that Daniel who is one of the [p](U)exiles from Judah, whom my father the king (V)brought from Judah? 14 Now I have heard about you that [q]a spirit of the gods is in you, and that illumination, insight, and extraordinary wisdom have been found in you. 15 Just now the (W)wise men and the conjurers were brought in before me that they might read this writing and make its interpretation known to me, but they (X)could not declare the interpretation of the [r]message. 16 But I personally have heard about you, that you are able to give interpretations and [s]solve difficult problems. Now if you are able to read the writing and make its (Y)interpretation known to me, you will be (Z)clothed with purple and wear a necklace of gold around your neck, and you will rule with power as the [t]third ruler in the kingdom.”
17 Then Daniel answered and said before the king, “Let your (AA)gifts remain with you or give your rewards to someone else; however, I will read the writing to the king and make the interpretation known to him. 18 [u]O king, the (AB)Most High God (AC)granted the kingdom, (AD)grandeur, glory, and majesty to Nebuchadnezzar your father. 19 And because of the grandeur which He bestowed on him, all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue feared and were in dread before him; (AE)whomever he wished he killed, and whomever he wished he kept alive, and whomever he wished he raised up, and whomever he wished he made low. 20 But when his heart was (AF)raised up and his spirit became so (AG)strong that he behaved arrogantly, he was (AH)deposed from his royal throne, and his glory was taken away from him. 21 He was also (AI)driven away from the sons of [v]men, and his heart was made like that of beasts, and his place of habitation was with the (AJ)wild donkeys. He was given grass to eat like cattle, and his body was drenched with the dew of the sky until he knew that the (AK)Most High God is the powerful ruler over the kingdom of mankind and that He sets up over it whomever He wishes. 22 Yet you, his [w]son, Belshazzar, have (AL)not made your heart lowly, [x]even though you knew all this, 23 but you have (AM)raised yourself up against the (AN)Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines have been drinking wine from them; and you have praised the (AO)gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which do not see, hear, or know. But the God (AP)in whose hand are your life-breath and all your (AQ)ways, you have not honored. 24 Then the [y](AR)hand was sent from Him, and this writing was [z]inscribed.
25 “Now this is the writing that was [aa]inscribed: ‘[ab]MENĒ, [ac]MENĒ, [ad]TEKĒL, [ae]UPHARSIN.’ 26 This is the interpretation of the [af]message: ‘MENĒ’—God has numbered your kingdom and (AS)put an end to it. 27 ‘TEKĒL’—you have been (AT)weighed on the scales and found lacking. 28 ‘PERĒS’—your kingdom has been divided and given over to the (AU)Medes and [ag]Persians.”
29 Then Belshazzar said the word, and they (AV)clothed Daniel with purple and put a necklace of gold around his neck and issued a proclamation concerning him that he now would be the [ah]third powerful ruler in the kingdom.
30 That same night (AW)Belshazzar the Chaldean king was (AX)killed.
31 [ai]So (AY)Darius the Mede received the kingdom at about the age of sixty-two.

The Writing on the Wall
5 King Belshazzar(A) gave a great banquet(B) for a thousand of his nobles(C) and drank wine with them. 2 While Belshazzar was drinking(D) his wine, he gave orders to bring in the gold and silver goblets(E) that Nebuchadnezzar his father[a] had taken from the temple in Jerusalem, so that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines(F) might drink from them.(G) 3 So they brought in the gold goblets that had been taken from the temple of God in Jerusalem, and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines drank from them. 4 As they drank the wine, they praised the gods(H) of gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood and stone.(I)
5 Suddenly the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall, near the lampstand in the royal palace. The king watched the hand as it wrote. 6 His face turned pale(J) and he was so frightened(K) that his legs became weak(L) and his knees were knocking.(M)
7 The king summoned the enchanters,(N) astrologers[b](O) and diviners.(P) Then he said to these wise(Q) men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this writing and tells me what it means will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around his neck,(R) and he will be made the third(S) highest ruler in the kingdom.”(T)
8 Then all the king’s wise men(U) came in, but they could not read the writing or tell the king what it meant.(V) 9 So King Belshazzar became even more terrified(W) and his face grew more pale. His nobles were baffled.
10 The queen,[c] hearing the voices of the king and his nobles, came into the banquet hall. “May the king live forever!”(X) she said. “Don’t be alarmed! Don’t look so pale! 11 There is a man in your kingdom who has the spirit of the holy gods(Y) in him. In the time of your father he was found to have insight and intelligence and wisdom(Z) like that of the gods.(AA) Your father, King Nebuchadnezzar, appointed him chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers and diviners.(AB) 12 He did this because Daniel, whom the king called Belteshazzar,(AC) was found to have a keen mind and knowledge and understanding, and also the ability to interpret dreams, explain riddles(AD) and solve difficult problems.(AE) Call for Daniel, and he will tell you what the writing means.(AF)”
13 So Daniel was brought before the king, and the king said to him, “Are you Daniel, one of the exiles my father the king brought from Judah?(AG) 14 I have heard that the spirit of the gods(AH) is in you and that you have insight, intelligence and outstanding wisdom.(AI) 15 The wise men and enchanters were brought before me to read this writing and tell me what it means, but they could not explain it.(AJ) 16 Now I have heard that you are able to give interpretations and to solve difficult problems.(AK) If you can read this writing and tell me what it means, you will be clothed in purple and have a gold chain placed around your neck,(AL) and you will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom.”(AM)
17 Then Daniel answered the king, “You may keep your gifts for yourself and give your rewards to someone else.(AN) Nevertheless, I will read the writing for the king and tell him what it means.
18 “Your Majesty, the Most High God gave your father Nebuchadnezzar(AO) sovereignty and greatness and glory and splendor.(AP) 19 Because of the high position he gave him, all the nations and peoples of every language dreaded and feared him. Those the king wanted to put to death, he put to death;(AQ) those he wanted to spare, he spared; those he wanted to promote, he promoted; and those he wanted to humble, he humbled.(AR) 20 But when his heart became arrogant and hardened with pride,(AS) he was deposed from his royal throne(AT) and stripped(AU) of his glory.(AV) 21 He was driven away from people and given the mind of an animal; he lived with the wild donkeys and ate grass like the ox; and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven, until he acknowledged that the Most High God is sovereign(AW) over all kingdoms on earth and sets over them anyone he wishes.(AX)
22 “But you, Belshazzar, his son,[d] have not humbled(AY) yourself, though you knew all this. 23 Instead, you have set yourself up against(AZ) the Lord of heaven. You had the goblets from his temple brought to you, and you and your nobles, your wives(BA) and your concubines drank wine from them. You praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or understand.(BB) But you did not honor the God who holds in his hand your life(BC) and all your ways.(BD) 24 Therefore he sent the hand that wrote the inscription.
25 “This is the inscription that was written:
mene, mene, tekel, parsin
26 “Here is what these words mean:
Mene[e]: God has numbered the days(BE) of your reign and brought it to an end.(BF)
27 Tekel[f]: You have been weighed on the scales(BG) and found wanting.(BH)
28 Peres[g]: Your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes(BI) and Persians.”(BJ)
29 Then at Belshazzar’s command, Daniel was clothed in purple, a gold chain was placed around his neck,(BK) and he was proclaimed the third highest ruler in the kingdom.(BL)
30 That very night Belshazzar,(BM) king(BN) of the Babylonians,[h] was slain,(BO) 31 and Darius(BP) the Mede(BQ) took over the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two.[i]

Traducción en lenguaje actual
La fiesta de Belsasar
5 El rey Belsasar hizo una gran fiesta, a la que invitó a las mil personas más importantes de su reino. Todos los asistentes a la fiesta bebieron mucho vino. 2-3 También Belsasar bebió mucho, y ya borracho mandó traer las copas de oro y plata que su padre Nabucodonosor había traído del templo de Jerusalén. Las mandó traer para que él y sus invitados siguieran bebiendo en ellas. 4 Y mientras bebían, cantaban alabanzas a sus dioses, que eran simples estatuas de oro, plata, cobre, hierro, madera y piedra.
Dios escribe en la pared
5 De pronto, una mano apareció sobre la pared y comenzó a escribir. La luz de las lámparas permitía ver bien cómo escribía. En cuanto el rey vio la mano, 6 se puso blanco y comenzó a temblar de miedo. 7 Enseguida llamó a gritos a sus sabios y adivinos, y les ordenó: «¿Hay alguien aquí que me pueda explicar lo que está escrito en la pared? Al que lo haga, lo vestiré como un príncipe y le daré el tercer lugar de importancia y autoridad en mi reino».
8 Pero ninguno de los sabios y adivinos entendía lo que estaba escrito, así que tampoco podían explicárselo al rey. 9 Por eso el rey se preocupó mucho, y se asustó aún más. También sus invitados estaban muy confundidos.
10 Cuando la reina oyó los gritos de Belsasar y de sus invitados, entró al salón del banquete y le dijo al rey:
«¡Deseo que Su Majestad viva muchos años! ¡No se preocupe más, ni tenga tanto miedo! 11 Aquí en Babilonia hay un joven muy inteligente y sabio. En él vive el espíritu del Dios único. Nabucodonosor, padre de Su Majestad, lo conocía bien, y por eso lo puso como jefe de todos los sabios.
12 »Ese joven puede explicar los sueños y las cosas más difíciles y misteriosas. Se llama Daniel, aunque el rey Nabucodonosor le cambió el nombre y le puso Beltsasar. Llámelo usted. Él le dirá a Su Majestad lo que significa esa escritura en la pared».
13 El rey mandó llamar a Daniel. Y cuando Daniel llegó, el rey le preguntó:
—¿Así que tú eres uno de esos judíos que mi padre trajo de Judá? 14 Según me contaron, en ti vive el espíritu del Dios único, y por eso eres muy inteligente y sabio.
15 »Yo mandé traer a todos los sabios y adivinos, para que me explicaran lo que está escrito en la pared, pero no pudieron hacerlo. 16 Yo sé que tú puedes explicar cosas muy difíciles. Si me dices qué significa lo que está escrito en la pared, mandaré que te vistan como a un príncipe. Además, te daré el tercer lugar de importancia y autoridad en mi reino.»
17 Y Daniel le contestó:
—Yo puedo explicar a Su Majestad lo que significa la escritura en la pared. Pero no tiene que hacerme ningún regalo ni darme ningún puesto importante.
18-19 »El Dios altísimo dio un reino muy grande al rey Nabucodonosor, padre de Su Majestad. Todas las naciones lo respetaban y reconocían su grandeza. También le tenían miedo, porque él decidía a quién matar y a quién dejar con vida, a quién humillar y a quién poner en un lugar importante.
20 »El rey Nabucodonosor se sentía tan importante y poderoso, que empezó a tratar mal a la gente. Por eso Dios le quitó el reino, 21 y Nabucodonosor no pudo seguir viviendo entre la gente, pues se portaba como un animal. Vivía entre los burros salvajes, comía pasto como los toros, y se bañaba con el rocío del cielo. Así vivió hasta que reconoció que sólo el Dios altísimo reina sobre todas las naciones, y que sólo él decide quién puede ser rey.
22 »Su Majestad ya sabía todo esto, y aunque lo sabía no quiso ser humilde. 23 Al contrario, Su Majestad mandó traer las copas del templo de Dios, y en ellas bebieron Su Majestad y todos sus invitados. Para colmo, en vez de que usted adorara al Dios que lo hizo y que tiene poder sobre su vida, tanto usted como sus invitados adoraron a sus dioses. ¡Esos dioses no pueden ver ni oír ni pensar, pues están hechos de metal, madera y piedra!
»Tales acciones de Su Majestad hicieron enojar al Dios del cielo. 24 Por eso él mandó que la mano escribiera: 25 “mené, mené, tekel y parsín”, 26 y esto es lo que significan estas palabras:
»“Mené” quiere decir que Dios ha decidido poner fin al reinado de Su Majestad. 27 “Tekel” quiere decir que Dios concedió a Su Majestad una oportunidad, pero Su Majestad no la aprovechó. 28 “Parsín” quiere decir que Dios partirá en dos el reino de Su Majestad, y que se lo dará a los medos y a los persas.»
29 Enseguida el rey Belsasar ordenó que vistieran a Daniel como a un príncipe. También hizo anunciar que, en todo el reino, Daniel tendría el tercer lugar de mayor importancia y autoridad. 30 Y esa misma noche mataron a Belsasar, rey de los babilonios. 31 Así Darío llegó a ser rey de los medos. Cuando esto sucedió, Darío tenía sesenta y dos años.

Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
5 Si Belsasar na hari ay gumawa ng malaking piging sa isang libo na kaniyang mga mahal na tao, at uminom ng alak sa harap ng sanglibo.
2 Samantalang nilalasap ni Belsasar ang alak, ay nagutos na dalhin doon ang mga ginto at pilak na sisidlan na kinuha ni Nabucodonosor na kaniyang ama sa templo na nasa Jerusalem; upang mainuman ng hari, ng kaniyang mga mahal na tao, ng kaniyang mga asawa, at ng kaniyang mga babae.
3 Nang magkagayo'y dinala nila ang mga gintong sisidlan na kinuha sa templo ng bahay ng Dios na nasa Jerusalem; at ininuman ng hari at ng kaniyang mga mahal na tao, at ng kaniyang mga asawa at ng kaniyang mga babae.
4 Sila'y nangaginuman ng alak, at nagsipuri sa mga dios na ginto, at pilak, tanso, bakal, kahoy, at bato.
5 Nang oras ding yaon ay may lumabas na mga daliri ng kamay ng isang tao at sumulat sa tapat ng kandelero sa panig na may palitada ng palacio: at nakita ng hari ang bahagi ng kamay na sumulat.
6 Nang magkagayo'y nagbago ang pagmumukha ng hari, at binagabag siya ng kaniyang mga pagiisip; at ang pagkakasugpong ng kaniyang mga balakang ay nakalag, at ang kaniyang mga tuhod ay nagkaumpugan.
7 Ang hari ay sumigaw ng malakas, na papasukin ang mga enkantador, mga Caldeo, at mga manghuhula. Ang hari ay nagsalita, at nagsabi sa mga pantas sa Babilonia, Sinomang makababasa ng sulat na ito, at makapagpapaaninaw sa akin ng kahulugan niyan, magdadamit ng kulay morado, at magkakaroon ng kuwintas na ginto sa palibot ng kaniyang leeg, at magiging ikatlong puno sa kaharian.
8 Nang magkagayo'y nagsipasok ang lahat na pantas ng hari; nguni't hindi nila nabasa ang sulat, o naipaaninaw man sa hari ang kahulugan niyaon.
9 Nang magkagayo'y nabagabag na mainam ang haring Belsasar, at ang kaniyang pagmumukha ay nabago, at ang kaniyang mga mahal na tao ay nangatitigilan.
10 Ang reina, dahil sa mga salita ng hari at ng kaniyang mga mahal na tao ay pumasok sa bahay na pinagpigingan: ang reina ay nagsalita, at nagsabi, Oh hari, mabuhay ka magpakailan man; huwag kang bagabagin ng iyong mga pagiisip, o mabago man ang iyong pagmumukha.
11 May isang lalake sa iyong kaharian na kinaroroonan ng espiritu ng mga banal na dios; at sa mga kaarawan ng iyong ama, ay nasumpungan sa kaniya ang liwanag at unawa at karunungan, na gaya ng karunungan ng mga dios; at ang haring Nabucodonosor, na iyong ama, ang hari, sinasabi ko, ang iyong ama, ay ginawa niya siyang panginoon ng mga mago, ng mga enkantador, ng mga Caldeo, at ng mga manghuhula;
12 Palibhasa'y isang marilag na espiritu, at kaalaman, at unawa, pagpapaaninaw ng mga panaginip, at pagpapakilala ng mga malabong salita, at pagpapaliwanag ng pagaalinlangan, ay nangasumpungan sa Daniel na iyan, na pinanganlan ng hari na Beltsasar. Tawagin nga si Daniel, at kaniyang ipaaaninaw ang kahulugan.
13 Nang magkagayo'y dinala si Daniel sa harap ng hari. Ang hari ay nagsalita, at nagsabi kay Daniel, Ikaw baga'y si Daniel na sa mga anak ng pagkabihag sa Juda, na kinuha sa Juda ng haring aking ama?
14 Nabalitaan kita, na ang espiritu ng mga dios ay sumasa iyo, at ang liwanag at unawa at marilag na karunungan ay masusumpungan sa iyo.
15 At ang mga pantas nga, ang mga enkantador, dinala sa harap ko, upang kanilang basahin ang sulat na ito, at ipaaninaw sa akin ang kahulugan; nguni't hindi nila naipaaninaw ang kahulugan ng bagay.
16 Nguni't nabalitaan kita, na ikaw ay makapagpapaaninaw ng mga kahulugan, at makapagpapaliwanag ng alinlangan: kung iyo ngang mabasa ang sulat, at maipaaninaw sa akin ang kahulugan, mananamit ka ng kulay morado, at magkakaroon ng kuwintas na ginto sa palibot ng iyong leeg, at ikaw ay magiging ikatlong puno sa kaharian.
17 Nang magkagayo'y sumagot, at nagsabi si Daniel sa harap ng hari, Iyo na ang iyong mga kaloob, at ibigay mo ang iyong mga ganting pala sa iba; gayon ma'y aking babasahin sa hari ang sulat, at ipaaninaw ko sa kaniya ang kahulugan.
18 Oh ikaw na hari, ang Kataastaasang Dios, nagbigay kay Nabucodonosor na iyong ama ng kaharian, at kadakilaan, at kaluwalhatian, at kamahalan:
19 At dahil sa kadakilaan na ibinigay niya sa kaniya, nanginig at natakot sa harap niya lahat ng mga bayan, bansa, at wika: ang kaniyang ibiging patayin ay kaniyang pinapatay, at ang kaniyang ibiging buhayin ay kaniyang binubuhay; at ang ibiging itaas ay kaniyang itinataas, at ang ibiging ibaba ay kaniyang ibinababa.
20 Nguni't nang ang kaniyang puso ay magpakataas, at ang kaniyang espiritu ay magmatigas na siya'y gumawang may kapalaluan, siya'y ibinaba sa kaniyang luklukang pagkahari, at inalis nila ang kaniyang kaluwalhatian:
21 At siya'y pinalayas sa mga anak ng mga tao, at ang kaniyang puso ay naging gaya ng sa mga hayop, at ang kaniyang tahanan ay napasama sa maiilap na mga asno; siya'y pinakain ng damo na gaya ng mga baka, at ang kaniyang katawan ay nabasa ng hamog ng langit; hanggang sa kaniyang naalaman na ang Kataastaasang Dios ay nagpupuno sa kaharian ng mga tao, at iniluklok niya roon ang sinomang kaniyang ibigin.
22 At ikaw na kaniyang anak, Oh Belsasar, hindi mo pinapagpakumbaba ang iyong puso, bagaman iyong nalalaman ang lahat na ito,
23 Kundi ikaw ay nagpakataas laban sa Panginoon ng langit; at kanilang dinala ang mga kasangkapan ng kaniyang bahay sa harap mo, at ikaw, at ang iyong mga mahal na tao, ang iyong mga asawa at ang iyong mga babae, ay nagsiinom ng alak sa mga yaon; at iyong pinuri ang mga dios na pilak, at ginto, tanso, bakal, kahoy at bato, na hindi nangakakakita, o nangakakarinig man, o nakakaalam man; at ang Dios na kinaroroonan ng iyong hininga, at kinaroroonan ng lahat na iyong lakad, hindi mo niluwalhati.
24 Nang magkagayo'y ang bahagi nga ng kamay ay sinugo mula sa harap niya, at ang sulat na ito'y nalagda.
25 At ito ang sulat na nalagda, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
26 Ito ang kahulugan ng bagay: MENE; binilang ng Dios ang iyong kaharian, at niwakasan.
27 TEKEL; ikaw ay tinimbang sa timbangan, at ikaw ay nasumpungang kulang.
28 PERES; ang iyong kaharian ay hinati at ibinigay sa mga taga Media at taga Persia.
29 Nang magkagayo'y nagutos si Belsasar, at pinanamit nila si Daniel ng kulay morado, at nilagyan ng kuwintas na ginto sa palibot ng leeg niya, at nagtanyag tungkol sa kaniya, na siya'y ikatlong puno sa kaharian.
30 Nang gabing yaon ay napatay si Belsasar na hari ng mga taga Caldea.
31 At tinanggap ni Dario na taga Media ang kaharian, na noo'y anim na pu't dalawang taon ang gulang niya.
