24Then from before him the palm of a hand was sent, and this writing was inscribed.

25And this is the inscription that was written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, and PARSIN.

26This is the interpretation of the message: MENE—God has numbered your kingdom and finished it.

27Tekel: you have been weighed in the balances and found lacking.

28Peres: your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and Persians.
