And this is the inscription that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN–numbered, numbered, weighed, divisions.
This is the interpretation of the matter: MENE, God has numbered the days of your kingship and brought them to an end;
TEKEL, You are weighed in the balances and are found wanting;
PERES, Your kingdom and your kingship are divided and given to the Medes and Persians. [Foretold in Isa. 21:2, 5, 9.]
