Book of Daniel

[Isatis]

Dan 5:18 " O king, the Most High God granted sovereignty, grandeur, glory and majesty to Nebuchadnezzar your father.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:19 "Because of the grandeur which He bestowed on him, all the peoples, nations and men of every language feared and trembled before him; whomever he wished he killed and whomever he wished he spared alive; and whomever he wished he elevated and whomever he wished he humbled.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:20 "But when his heart was lifted up and his spirit became so proud that he behaved arrogantly, he was deposed from his royal throne and his glory was taken away from him.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:21 "He was also driven away from mankind, and his heart was made like that of beasts, and his dwelling place was with the wild donkeys. He was given grass to eat like cattle, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until he recognized that the Most High God is ruler over the realm of mankind and that He sets over it whomever He wishes.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:22 "Yet you, his son, Belshazzar, have not humbled your heart, even though you knew all this,

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:23 but you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines have been drinking wine from them; and you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which do not see, hear or understand. But the God in whose hand are your life-breath and all your ways, you have not glorified.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:24 "Then the hand was sent from Him and this inscription was written out.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:25 "Now this is the inscription that was written out: 'MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.'

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:26 "This is the interpretation of the message: 'MENE'—God has numbered your kingdom and put an end to it.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:27 " 'TEKEL'—you have been weighed on the scales and found deficient.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:28 " 'PERES'—your kingdom has been divided and given over to the Medes and Persians."

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:29 Then Belshazzar gave orders, and they clothed Daniel with purple and put a necklace of gold around his neck, and issued a proclamation concerning him that he now had authority as the third ruler in the kingdom.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:30 That same night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was slain.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 5:31 So Darius the Mede received the kingdom at about the age of sixty-two.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 6:1 It seemed good to Darius to appoint 120 satraps over the kingdom, that they would be in charge of the whole kingdom,

 

[Isatis]

Dan 6:2 and over them three commissioners (of whom Daniel was one), that these satraps might be accountable to them, and that the king might not suffer loss.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 6:3 Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself among the commissioners and satraps because he possessed an extraordinary spirit, and the king planned to appoint him over the entire kingdom.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 6:4 Then the commissioners and satraps began trying to find a ground of accusation against Daniel in regard to government affairs; but they could find no ground of accusation or evidence of corruption, inasmuch as he was faithful, and no negligence or corruption was to be found in him.

 

[Isatis]

Dan 6:5 Then these men said, "We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God."

 

[Isatis]

Dan 6:6 Then these commissioners and satraps came by agreement to the king and spoke to him as follows: "King Darius, live forever!
