1 Why do the nations
rage,
And the peoples meditate a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth
set themselves,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against Jehovah, and against his anointed, [saying],
3 Let us break their
bonds asunder,
And cast away their cords from us.
4 He that sitteth in the
heavens will laugh:
The Lord will have them in derision.
5 Then will he speak
unto them in his wrath,
And vex them in his sore displeasure:
6 Yet I have set my king
Upon my holy hill of Zion.
7 I will tell of the
decree:
Jehovah said unto me, Thou art my son;
This day have I begotten thee.
8 Ask of me, and I will
give [thee] the nations for thine
inheritance,
And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9 Thou shalt break them
with a rod of iron;
Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
10 Now therefore be
wise, O ye kings:
Be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11 Serve Jehovah with
fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the son, lest he
be angry, and ye perish in the way,
For his wrath will soon be kindled.
Blessed are all they that take refuge in him.
