Belshazzar commands, and they clothe Daniel with purple; that night Belshazzar is slain, and Darius the Mede receives the kingdom
벨사살이 명하여 다니엘에게 자주옷을 입히게 하고 그날 밤에 벨사살이 죽임을 당하며 메대 사람 다리오가 나라를 얻음
Daniel 5:29–31: then Belshazzar commands, and they clothe Daniel with purple, and put a chain of gold about his neck, and make proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom. In that night Belshazzar the Chaldean King is slain. Darius the Mede receives the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old. The text does not say who slew Belshazzar. Where WEB reads “made proclamation concerning him, that he should be the third ruler in the kingdom”, the Korean Revised Version reads 그를 위하여 조서를 내려 나라의 세째 치리자를 삼으니라 (issued a decree for him and made him the third ruler of the kingdom); it reads 갈대아왕 (the king of Chaldea) where WEB reads “the Chaldean King” (5:30), and 육십 이세 (sixty-two years old) where WEB reads “about sixty-two years old” (5:31).
