THE INSCRIPTION’S INTERPRETATION

25 “This is the writing that was inscribed: Mene, Mene, Tekel, and Parsin. 26 This is the interpretation of the message:

‘Mene’C means that God has numberedD the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end.t

27 ‘Tekel’A means that you have been weighedB on the balance and found deficient.

28 ‘Peres’C,* means that your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and Persians.”E
