Daniel 5:6 in Context — Daniel 5
4 Ils burent du vin, et ils louèrent les dieux d’or, d’argent, d’airain, de fer, de bois et de pierre.
5 En ce moment, apparurent les doigts d’une main d’homme, et ils écrivirent, en face du chandelier, sur la chaux de la muraille du palais royal. Le roi vit cette extrémité de main qui écrivait.
6 Alors le roi changea de couleur, et ses pensées le troublèrent; les jointures de ses reins se relâchèrent, et ses genoux se heurtèrent l’un contre l’autre.
7 Le roi cria avec force qu’on fît venir les astrologues, les Chaldéens et les devins; et le roi prit la parole et dit aux sages de Babylone: Quiconque lira cette écriture et m’en donnera l’explication sera revêtu de pourpre, portera un collier d’or à son cou, et aura la troisième place dans le gouvernement du royaume.
8 Tous les sages du roi entrèrent; mais ils ne purent pas lire l’écriture et en donner au roi l’explication.
