“Then came in all the king's wise men: but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation thereof.”
King James Version (KJV)
5:6 His knees smote - So soon can the terrors of God make the loftiest cedars, the tyrants of the earth.
5:10 The queen came - The women in those courts had an apartment by themselves, and this being the queen - mother, and aged, did not mingle herself with the king's wives and concubines, yet she broke the rule in coming in now, upon this solemn occasion.
