The saying "writing on the wall" originates from the biblical story in the Book of Daniel, where mysterious handwriting appears on a wall during a feast hosted by King Belshazzar of Babylon. The writing is interpreted by the prophet Daniel as a divine message indicating the king's impending doom and the fall of his kingdom. Over time, the phrase has come to symbolize an ominous indication of future misfortune or inevitable failure.
