←Prev   Psalms 2 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


2:1  Why do the Gentiles rage, and the peoples imagine a vain thing?
2:2  The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his anointed, saying,
2:3  let us break their bands asunder and cast away their cords from us.
2:4  He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
2:5  Then he shall speak unto them in his wrath and trouble them in his sore displeasure.
2:6  Yet I have set my king upon Zion, the mountain of my holiness.
2:7  I will declare the decree; the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day I have begotten thee.
2:8  Ask of me, and I shall give thee the Gentiles for thine inheritance and unto the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
2:9  Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
2:10  Understand now therefore, O ye kings: receive chastening, ye judges of the earth.
2:11  Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
2:12  Kiss the Son lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way when his wrath is kindled in a little while. Blessed are all those that put their trust in him.
