Daniel 5:6-9

LEB(i) 6 Then his face changed and his thoughts terrified him, and his hip joints gave way* and his knees knocked together.* 7 The king cried aloud* to bring in the conjurers,* the astrologers* and the diviners; the king spoke* and said to the wise men of Babylon, "Any man that can read this writing and can tell me its explanation will be clothed in purple and will have a necklace of gold hung around his neck and he will rule as third in authority in the kingdom." 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.* 9 Then the king, Belshazzar, became greatly terrified, and his facial features* changed upon him, and his lords* were perplexed.
