Answer:
Belshazzar, the king of Babylon, was having a great feast with his nobles, his wives, and his concubines. In the midst of the feast, he ordered that the gold and silver vessels that his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken from the temple in Jerusalem be brought to him so that he and his guests could drink from them.
As they were drinking, they praised the gods of gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone. Suddenly, a finger appeared out of nowhere and began writing on the wall. The king's face turned pale and he was so alarmed that his knees knocked together.
The queen, seeing the king's distress, said, "May the gods have mercy on you, my lord. What does this mean?"
But the king could not answer her. Then Daniel was brought in at the king's command. Daniel interpreted the words that were written on the wall: "Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin."
Daniel said, "This is what they mean: Mene: God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end. Tekel: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting. Upharsin: Your kingdom is divided and will be given to the Medes and the Persians."
That very night, Belshazzar was killed, and Darius the Mede took over his kingdom.
