28. Elokuba PERES lithi, Buyahlulwa ubukumkani bakho, bunikwe amaMedi namaPersi.
29. Waza uBheleshatsare wayalela, bamnxiba uDaniyeli iingubo ezimfusa, nomxokelelwane wegolide emqaleni wakhe; bamemeza ngaye ngelithi, úya kuba ngowabathathu onegunya ebukumkanini.
30. Kwangobo busuku wabulawa uBheleshatsare ukumkani wamaKaledi.
