ગુજરાતીદાનિયેલ ૫:૭
રાજાએ મોટેથી બૂમ પાડીને કહ્યું, મંત્રવિદ્યા જાણનારાંઓને, ખાલદીઓને તથા જોષીઓને બોલાવી લાવો. રાજાએ બાબિલના જ્ઞાનીઓને કહ્યું, “જે કોઈ આ લખાણ વાંચીને તેનો અર્થ મને જણાવશે, તેને જાંબુડિયા રંગનો ઝભ્ભો તથા ગળામાં સોનાનો હાર પહેરાવવામાં આવશે. તે રાજ્યમાં ત્રીજો અધિકારી થશે.”
हिन्दीदानिय्येल ५:७
तब राजा ने ऊँचे शब्द से पुकारकर तंत्रियों, कसदियों और अन्य भावी बतानेवालों को हाजिर करवाने की आज्ञा दी। जब बाबेल के पंडित पास आए, तब उनसे कहने लगा, “जो कोई वह लिखा हुआ पढ़कर उसका अर्थ मुझे समझाए उसे बैंगनी रंग का वस्त्र और उसके गले में सोने की कण्ठमाला पहनाई जाएगी; और मेरे राज्य में तीसरा वही प्रभुता करेगा।”

7The king cried aloud to bring in the enchanters, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, “Whoever reads this writing and shows me its interpretation shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom.”

8Then all the king’s wise men came in; but they could not read the writing, and couldn’t make known to the king the interpretation.

9Then King Belshazzar was greatly troubled, and his face was changed in him, and his lords were perplexed.
