RESTORATION SCRIPTURES TRUE NAME EDITION Study Bible

36 At the same time my reasoning returned to me; and for
the tifereth of my malchut, my honor and brightness
returned to me; and my counselors and my masters sought
me again; and I was established in my malchut, and
excellent greatness was even added to me.
37 Now I Nevuchadnetzar hallel and extol and honor the
Melech of the shamayim, because all His works are all
emet, and all His halachot are tzadik: and those that walk
in pride He is able to humble.
5
Belshatzar the melech made a great feast to a thousand
of his masters, and drank wine before the thousands. 2708
2 Belshatzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to
bring in the golden and silver vessels that his abba
Nevuchadnetzar 2709 had taken out of the Hekal that was
in Yahrushalayim; so that the melech, and his nobles, his
wives, and his concubines, might drink from them.
3 Then they brought the golden vessels that were taken
out of the Hekal of the Bayit of tvkt which was at
Yahrushalayim; and the melech, and his nobles, his
wives, and his concubines, drank from them.
4 They drank wine, and praised the tvkt of gold, and of
silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
5 In the same hour came forth fingers of a Man's hand,
and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of
the wall of the melech's palace: and the melech saw the
part of the hand that wrote.
6 Then the melech's face was changed, and his thoughts
troubled him, so that the joints of his hips were loosed,
and his knees knocked one against another.
7 The melech cried aloud to bring in the astrologers, the
Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the melech spoke,
and said to the wise men of Bavel, Whoever shall read
this writing, and explain to me the interpretation of it,
shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of gold 2710
around his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the
malchut.
8 Then came in all the melech's wise men: but they could
not read the writing, nor make known to the melech its
interpretation.
9 Then was melech Belshatzar greatly troubled, and his
face was changed, and his nobles were astonished.
10 Now the queen, by reason of the words of the melech
and his masters, came into the banquet bayit: and the
queen spoke and said, O melech, live le-olam-va-ed: let
not your thoughts trouble you, nor let your face be
changed:
11 There is a man in your malchut, in whom is the ruach
of the kadosh tvkt; and in the days of your abba 2711
light and binah and chochmah, like the chochmah of the
tvkt, was found in him; whom the melech
Nevuchadnetzar your abba made master over all the
magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers;
12 Since an excellent Ruach, and da’at, and binah,
interpreting of dreams, and solving difficult problems,
and explaining things, were found in the same Daniyel,
whom the melech named Belteshazzar: now let Daniyel
be called, and he will explain the interpretation.
13 Then was Daniyel brought in before the melech. And
the melech spoke and said to Daniyel, Are you that same
Daniyel, who is from the children of the captivity of
Yahudah, whom the melech my abba brought out of
Yahudah?
DANIYEL - DANIEL
- 382 -
14 I have even heard about you, that the Ruach of the
tvkt is in you, and that light and binah and excellent
chochmah is found in you.
15 And now the wise men, the astrologers, have been
brought in before me, that they should read this writing,
and make known to me the interpretation of it: but they
could not explain the interpretation of the thing:
16 And I have heard about you, that you can make
interpretations, and dissolve doubts: now if you can read
the writing, and make known to me the interpretation of
it, you shall be clothed with scarlet, and have a chain of
gold around your neck, and shall be the third ruler in the
malchut. 2712
17 Then Daniyel answered and said before the melech,
Let your gifts be for yourself, and give your rewards to
another; yet I will read the writing to the melech, and
make known to him the interpretation.
18 O you melech, the Most High tvkt gave
Nevuchadnetzar your abba a malchut, and greatness, and
tifereth, and honor:
19 And for the greatness that He gave him, all peoples,
nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him:
whom he would he killed; and whom he would, he kept
alive; and whom he would, he set up; and whom he
would, he put down.
20 But when his lev was lifted up, and his mind hardened
in pride, he was deposed from the melech’s kesay, and
they 2713 took his tifereth from him:
21 And he was driven from the sons of men; and his lev
was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the
wild donkeys: they fed him with grass like oxen, and his
body was wet with the dew of the shamayim; until he
knew that the Most High tvkt ruled in the malchut of
men, and that He appoints over it whomever He desires.
22 And you his son, O Belshatzar, have not humbled your
lev, though you knew all this;
23 But have lifted up yourself against the Master of the
shamayim; and they have brought the vessels of His Bayit
before you, and you, and your masters, your wives, and
your concubines, have drunk wine in them; and you have
praised the mighty ones of silver, and gold, of brass, iron,
wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, and know
nothing: and to the tvkt in whose hand your breath is,
and who owns all your halachot, have you not given
tifereth:
24 Then was the palm of the hand sent from Him; with
this writing:
25 And this is the writing that was written, MENE,
MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.
26 This is the interpretation of these words: MENE;
tvkt has numbered your malchut, and finished it.
27 TEKEL; You are weighed in the balances, and are
found wanting.
28 PERES; your malchut is divided, and given to the
Medes and Persians.’
29 Then commanded Belshatzar, to clothe Daniyel with
scarlet, and put a chain of gold around his neck, and made
a proclamation concerning him, that he should be the
third ruler in the malchut.
30 In that night was Belshatzar the melech of the
Chaldeans killed.
31 And Daryawesh the Mede took the malchut, being
