LXXDOUAI-RHEIMS
1 βαλτασαρ ο βασιλευς εποιησεν εστιατοριαν μεγαλην τοις εταιροις αυτου και επινεν οινον1 Baltasar the king made a great feast for a thousand of his nobles: and every one drank according to his age.
2 και ανυψωθη η καρδια αυτου και ειπεν ενεγκαι τα σκευη τα χρυσα και τα αργυρα του οικου του θεου α ηνεγκε ναβουχοδονοσορ ο πατηρ αυτου απο ιερουσαλημ και οινοχοησαι εν αυτοις τοις εταιροις αυτου2 And being now drunk he commanded that they should bring the vessels of gold and silver which Nabuchodonosor his father had brought away out of the temple, that was in Jerusalem, that the king and his nobles, and his wives and his concubines, might drink in them.
3 και ηνεχθη και επινον εν αυτοις3 Then were the golden and silver vessels brought, which he had brought away out of the temple that was in Jerusalem: and the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, drank in them.
4 και ηυλογουν τα ειδωλα τα χειροποιητα αυτων και τον θεον του αιωνος ουκ ευλογησαν τον εχοντα την εξουσιαν του πνευματος αυτων4 They drank wine, and praised their gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, and of wood, and of stone.
5 εν αυτη τη ωρα εκεινη εξηλθον δακτυλοι ωσει χειρος ανθρωπου και εγραψαν επι του τοιχου του οικου αυτου επι του κονιαματος κατεναντι του φωτος εναντι του βασιλεως βαλτασαρ και ειδε χειρα γραφουσαν5 In the same hour there appeared fingers, as it were of the hand of a man, writing over against the candlestick upon the surface of the wall of the king's palace: and the king beheld the joints of the hand that wrote.
6 και η ορασις αυτου ηλλοιωθη και φοβοι και υπονοιαι αυτον κατεσπευδον εσπευσεν ουν ο βασιλευς και εξανεστη και εωρα την γραφην εκεινην και οι συνεταιροι κυκλω αυτου εκαυχωντο6 Then was the king's countenance changed, and his thoughts troubled him: and the joints of his loins were loosed, and his knees struck one against the other.
7 και ο βασιλευς εφωνησε φωνη μεγαλη καλεσαι τους επαοιδους και φαρμακους και χαλδαιους και γαζαρηνους απαγγειλαι το συγκριμα της γραφης και εισεπορευοντο επι θεωριαν ιδειν την γραφην και το συγκριμα της γραφης ουκ εδυναντο συγκριναι τω βασιλει τοτε ο βασιλευς εξεθηκε προσταγμα λεγων πας ανηρ ος αν υποδειξη το συγκριμα της γραφης στολιει αυτον πορφυραν και μανιακην χρυσουν περιθησει αυτω και δοθησεται αυτω εξουσια του τριτου μερους της βασιλειας7 And the king cried out aloud to bring in the wise men, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. And the king spoke, and said to the wise men of Babylon: Whosoever shall read this writing, and shall make known to me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and shall have a golden chain on his neck, and shall be the third man in my kingdom.
8 και εισεπορευοντο οι επαοιδοι και φαρμακοι και γαζαρηνοι και ουκ ηδυνατο ουδεις το συγκριμα της γραφης απαγγειλαι8 Then came in all the king's wise men, but they could neither read the writing, nor declare the interpretation to the king.
9 τοτε ο βασιλευς εκαλεσε την βασιλισσαν περι του σημειου και υπεδειξεν αυτη ως μεγα εστι και οτι πας ανθρωπος ου δυναται απαγγειλαι τω βασιλει το συγκριμα της γραφης9 Wherewith king Baltasar was much troubled, and his countenance was changed: and his nobles also were troubled.
10 τοτε η βασιλισσα εμνησθη προς αυτον περι του δανιηλ ος ην εκ της αιχμαλωσιας της ιουδαιας10 Then the queen, on occasion of what had happened to the king, and his nobles, came into the banquet house: and she spoke and said: O king, live for ever: let not thy thoughts trouble thee, neither let thy countenance be changed.
11 και ειπε τω βασιλει ο ανθρωπος επιστημων ην και σοφος και υπερεχων παντας τους σοφους βαβυλωνος11 There is a man in thy kingdom that hath the spirit of the holy gods in him: and in the days of thy father knowledge and wisdom were found in him: for king Nabuchodonosor thy father appointed him prince of the wise men, enchanters, Chaldeans, and soothsayers, thy father, I say, O king:
12 και πνευμα αγιον εν αυτω εστι και εν ταις ημεραις του πατρος σου του βασιλεως συγκριματα υπερογκα υπεδειξε ναβουχοδονοσορ τω πατρι σου12 Because a greater spirit, and knowledge, and understanding, and interpretation of dreams, and shewing of secrets, and resolving of difficult things, were found in him, that is, in Daniel: whom the king named Baltarsar. Now therefore let Daniel be called for, and he will tell the interpretation.
13 τοτε δανιηλ εισηχθη προς τον βασιλεα και αποκριθεις ο βασιλευς ειπεν αυτω13 Then Daniel was brought in before the king. And the king spoke, and said to him: Art thou Daniel of the children of the captivity of Juda, whom my father the king brought out of Judea?
14 -14 I have heard of thee, that thou hast the spirit of the gods, and excellent knowledge, and understanding, and wisdom are found in thee.
15 -15 And now the wise men the magicians have come in before me, to read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof: and they could not declare to me the meaning of this writing.
16 ω δανιηλ δυνη μοι υποδειξαι το συγκριμα της γραφης και στολιω σε πορφυραν και μανιακην χρυσουν περιθησω σοι και εξεις εξουσιαν του τριτου μερους της βασιλειας μου16 But I have heard of thee, that thou canst interpret obscure things, and resolve difficult things: now if thou art able to read the writing, and to shew me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and shalt have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third prince in my kingdom.
17 τοτε δανιηλ εστη κατεναντι της γραφης και ανεγνω και ουτως απεκριθη τω βασιλει αυτη η γραφη ηριθμηται κατελογισθη εξηρται και εστη η γραψασα χειρ και αυτη η συγκρισις αυτων17 To which Daniel made answer, and said before the king: Thy rewards be to thyself, and the gifts of thy house give to another: but the writing I will read to thee, O king, and shew thee the interpretation thereof.
18 -18 O king, the most high God gave to Nabuchodonosor thy father a kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honour.
19 -19 And for the greatness that he gave to him, all people, tribes, and languages trembled, and were afraid of him: whom he would, he slew: and whom he would, he destroyed: and whom he would, he set up: and whom he would, he brought down.
20 -20 But when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened unto pride, he was put down from the throne of his kingdom, and his glory was taken away.
21 -21 And he was driven out from the sons of men, and his heart was made like the beasts, and his dwelling was with the wild asses, and he did eat grass like an ox, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven: till he knew that the most High ruled in the kingdom of men, and that he will set over it whomsoever it shall please him.
22 -22 Thou also his son, O Baltasar, hast not humbled thy heart, whereas thou knewest all these things:
23 βασιλευ συ εποιησω εστιατοριαν τοις φιλοις σου και επινες οινον και τα σκευη του οικου του θεου του ζωντος ηνεχθη σοι και επινετε εν αυτοις συ και οι μεγιστανες σου και ηνεσατε παντα τα ειδωλα τα χειροποιητα των ανθρωπων και τω θεω τω ζωντι ουκ ευλογησατε και το πνευμα σου εν τη χειρι αυτου και το βασιλειον σου αυτος εδωκε σοι και ουκ ευλογησας αυτον ουδε ηνεσας αυτω23 But hast lifted thyself up against the Lord of heaven: and the vessels of his house have been brought before thee: and thou, and thy nobles, and thy wives, and thy concubines have drunk wine in them: and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and of gold, and of brass, of iron, and of wood, and of stone, that neither see, nor hear, nor feel: but the God who hath thy breath in his hand, and all thy ways, thou hast not glorified.
24 -24 Wherefore he hath sent the part of the hand which hath written this that is set down.
25 -25 And this is the writing that is written: MANE, THECEL, PHARES.
26 ,26-28 τουτο το συγκριμα της γραφης ηριθμηται ο χρονος σου της βασιλειας αποληγει η βασιλεια σου συντετμηται και συντετελεσται η βασιλεια σου τοις μηδοις και τοις περσαις διδοται26 And this is the interpretation of the word. MANE: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and hath finished it.
27 ,26-2827 THECEL: thou art weighed in the balance, and art found wanting.
28 ,26-2828 PHARES: thy kingdom is divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians.
29 τοτε βαλτασαρ ο βασιλευς ενεδυσε τον δανιηλ πορφυραν και μανιακην χρυσουν περιεθηκεν αυτω και εδωκεν εξουσιαν αυτω του τριτου μερους της βασιλειας αυτου29 Then by the king's command Daniel was clothed with purple, and a chain of gold was put about his neck: and it was proclaimed of him that he had power as the third man in the kingdom.
30 και το συγκριμα επηλθε βαλτασαρ τω βασιλει και το βασιλειον εξηρται απο των χαλδαιων και εδοθη τοις μηδοις και τοις περσαις30 The same night Baltasar the Chaldean king was slain.
31 -31 And Darius the Mede succeeded to the kingdom, being threescore and two years old.
