The Key Word — הַשְׁפֵּ֖לְתְּ, hash.Pe.letgenerated
The verb הַשְׁפֵּל (hash.Pe.let) is in the Hiphil stem, indicating a causative action. It means to bring low or to humble oneself, emphasizing the necessity of humility before God. In this context, it conveys that Belshazzar has not made the effort to lower his pride or recognize God's sovereignty.
The parsing as a perfect verb in the second person masculine singular indicates that this action is directed specifically at Belshazzar, making it a personal admonition. The use of this verb underscores the seriousness of his failure to respond appropriately to God's revelations.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB uses have not humbled, which is consistent with the KJV and ASV, both of which convey the same meaning.
Where they part company is in the rendering of דְּנָ֖ה. The BSB and several others use this, while the DRA and GNV opt for these things. The difference highlights the specificity of what Belshazzar was aware of.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb הַשְׁפֵּ֖לְתְּ (hash.Pe.let), you have brought low, governs the structure of the verse. It is followed by the subject אַ֤נְתְּ (an.tah), you, and a series of phrases that elaborate on the conditions of Belshazzar's heart and knowledge.
The syntax places emphasis on Belshazzar's awareness of God's actions, contrasting his knowledge with his failure to act humbly. The structure effectively highlights the gravity of his disobedience.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Daniel 5:22 shows that Belshazzar, despite knowing the history of God's judgment, did not humble his heart. This failure to recognize God's authority leads to his condemnation, as detailed in the surrounding verses.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
It means that Belshazzar failed to recognize his need for humility before God, despite being aware of God's past judgments against others.

bel-shaz'-ar (belsha'tstsar; Baltasar, Babylonian Bel-shar-usur): According to Da 5:30, he was the Chaldean king under whom Babylon was taken by Darius the Mede. The Babylonian monuments speak a number of times of a Bel-shar-usur who was the "firstborn son, the offspring of the heart of" Nabunaid, the last king of the Babylonian empire, that had been founded by Nabopolassar, the father of Nebuchadnezzar, at the time of the death of Ashurbanipal, king of Assyria, in 626 BC. There is no doubt that this Belshazzar is the same as the Belshazzar of Dnl. It is not necessary to suppose that Belshazzar was at any time king of the Babylonian empire in the sense that Nebuchadnezzar and Nabunaid were. It is probable, as M. Pognon argues, that a son of Nabunaid, called Nabunaid after his father, was king of Babylon, or Babylonian king, in Harran…
Belshazzar
Bel protect the king!, the last of the kings of Babylon (Dan. 5:1). He was the son of Nabonidus by Nitocris, who was the daughter of Nebuchadnezzar and the widow of Nergal-sharezer. When still young he made a great feast to a thousand of his lords, and when heated with wine sent for the sacred vessels his “father” (Dan. 5:2), or grandfather, Nebuchadnezzar had carried away from the temple in Jerusalem, and he and his princes drank out of them. In the midst of their mad revelry a hand was seen by the king tracing on the wall the announcement of God’s judgment, which that night fell upon him. At the instance of the queen (i.e., his mother) Daniel was brought in, and he interpreted the writing. That night the kingdom of the Chaldeans came to an end, and the king was slain (
(prince of Bel), the last king of Babylon. In (Daniel 5:2) Nebuchadnezzar is called the father of Belshazzar. This, of course, need only mean grandfather or ancestor. According to the well-known narrative Belshazzar gave a splendid feast in his palace during the siege of Babylon (B.C. 538), using the sacred vessels of the temple, which Nebuchadnezzer had brought from Jerusalem. The miraculous appearance of the handwriting on the wall, the calling in of Daniel to interpret its meaning the prophecy of the overthrow of the kingdom, and Belshazsar’s death, accorded in Dan. 5.
