New International Version |   | |
 |
| |
| | Psa 2:1 | Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain?
| |
| | Psa 2:2 | The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the LORD and against his Anointed One.
| |
| | Psa 2:3 | "Let us break their chains," they say, "and throw off their fetters."
| |
| | Psa 2:4 | The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
| |
| | Psa 2:5 | Then he rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
| |
| | Psa 2:6 | "I have installed my King on Zion, my holy hill."
| |
| | Psa 2:7 | I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me, "You are my Son ; today I have become your Father.
| |
| | Psa 2:8 | Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.
| |
| | Psa 2:9 | You will rule them with an iron scepter ; you will dash them to pieces like pottery."
| |
| | Psa 2:10 | Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth.
| |
| | Psa 2:11 | Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling.
| |
| | Psa 2:12 | Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
