3 Rewards promised by Belshazzar in Daniel 5


Daniel 5:7
The king summoned the enchanters, astrologers and diviners. Then he said to these wise men of Babylon, "Whoever reads this writing and tells me what it means

will be clothed in purple
and have a gold chain placed around his neck,
and he will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom." 

Daniel 5:16, 17
Now I have heard that you are able to give interpretations and to solve difficult problems. If you can read this writing and tell me what it means, you

will be clothed in purple
and have a gold chain placed around your neck,
and you will be made the third highest ruler in the kingdom." 

Then Daniel answered the king, "You may keep your gifts for yourself and give your rewards to someone else. Nevertheless, I will read the writing for the king and tell him what it means.

Daniel 5:29 
Then at Belshazzar's command, Daniel

was clothed in purple,
a gold chain was placed around his neck,
and he was proclaimed the third highest ruler in the kingdom.
