2:1 Why do the nations rage, And the peoples meditate a vain thing?
2:2 The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against Yahweh, and against his anointed, [saying,] 2:3 Let us break apart their bonds, And cast away from us their cords. 2:4 He who sits in the heavens will laugh: The Lord will have them in derision. 2:5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath, And in his intense displeasure, he will vex them: 2:6 Yet I have set my king On Zion my holy hill. 2:7 I will tell of the decree: Yahweh said to me, You are my son; This day I have begotten you. 2:8 Ask of me, and I will give [you] the nations for your inheritance; And for your possession, the uttermost parts of the earth. 2:9 You will shepherd them with a rod of iron; Like a potter's vessel, you will dash them in pieces. 2:10 Now therefore you+ kings, be wise; Be instructed, you+ judges of the earth. 2:11 Serve Yahweh with fear, And rejoice with trembling. 2:12 Embrace purity, or else he will be angry, and you+ will perish in the way, For his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him. |
