- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Et ornata es auro et argento, et vestita es bysso et polymito et multicoloribus : similam, et mel, et oleum comedisti : et decora facta es vehementer nimis, et profecisti in regnum.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- καὶ ἐκοσμήθης χρυσίῳ καὶ ἀργυρίῳ, καὶ τὰ περιβόλαιά σου βύσσινα καὶ τρίχαπτα καὶ ποικίλα· σεμίδαλιν καὶ ἔλαιον καὶ μέλι ἔφαγες, καὶ ἐγένου καλὴ σφόδρα.
- Hebrew (WLC)

Haydock's commentary
Linen. Hebrew mossi, ver. 11. (Haydock)
Chaldean understands these ornaments to pertain to the tabernacle, which was set up in the wilderness.
Oil, enjoying a most fertile country, (Calmet) and the noblest sacrifices. (Haydock)
And wast, &c. The kingdom had subsisted 1500 years. (Calmet)
Septuagint omit this, for fear of giving umbrage to the Egyptians, according to St. Jerome, as if they could be ignorant of this circumstance. (Calmet)
Grabe supplies, "thou wast directed to the kingdom." (Haydock)
