Daniël 5: 24-28 Doe is dat deel der hant van hem gesonden, ende dese schrift geteeckent geworden. Dit nu is de schrift, die daer geteeckent is, Mene Mene, Tekel, Upharsin . Dit is de uytlegginge deser woorden, Mene , Godt heeft u Coninckrijcke getelt, ende hy heeftet voleyndet. Tekel , Ghy zijt in weegschalen gewogen, ende ghy zijt te licht gevonden . Peres , U Koninckrijcke is verdeylt, ende ’t is den Meden ende den Persen gegeven. Daniel 5: 24-28 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written. And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. TEKEL; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting . PERES; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.
