בֵלְשַׁאצַּר֙
Bēləshaʼʦʦr
Belshazzar is the son of Nebuchadnezzar who became king after his father. See how you wrote this name in Daniel 5:1.
וְזִיוֺ֖הִי שָׁנַ֣יִן עֲל֑וֹהִי
and,face_of,his changed upon,him
The face of the king grew even more pale than in Daniel 5:6. Alternate translation: “his face became even more pale”
מִֽשְׁתַּבְּשִֽׁין
perplexed
To be perplexed is to be unable to understand, or to be confused.
5:1-30 Earthly kingdoms all pass away. As Nebuchadnezzar’s dream implied, Babylon would pass away and a new sovereign kingdom would take its place (2:39). After Nebuchadnezzar’s death in 562 BC, violence and debauchery increased in the palaces of Babylon until, during Belshazzar’s feast in 539 BC, even God’s holy vessels were polluted and defiled. God’s judgment came with lightning swiftness that night (5:30), and the next kingdom took over (see 2:32, 39; 5:31).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
