27:005:021 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 wet with
           the dew of heaven; till he knew that the most high God ruled
           in the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it
           whomsoever he will.

27:005:022 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart,
           though thou knewest all this;

27:005:023 But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and
           they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and
           thou, and thy lords, 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: 

27:005:024 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing
           was written.

27:005:025 And this is the writing that was written, Mene, Mene, TEKEL,
           UPHARSIN.

27:005:026 This is the interpretation of the thing:  Mene; God hath
           numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.

27:005:027 TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found
           wanting.

27:005:028 Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and
           Persians.

27:005:029 Then commanded Belshazzar, and they clothed Daniel with
           scarlet, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and made a
           proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler
           in the kingdom.

27:005:030 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain.

27:005:031 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore
           and two years old.

27:006:001 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and
           twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;

27:006:002 And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: 
           that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king
           should have no damage.

27:006:003 Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and
           princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king
           thought to set him over the whole realm.

27:006:004 Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion
           against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find
           none occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither
           was there any error or fault found in him.

27:006:005 Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against
           this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law
           of his God.
