Psalm 2

The Reign of the L ord ’ s Anointed.

¹Why are the nations restless And the peoples plotting in vain?

²The kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers conspire together Against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying,

³“Let’s tear their shackles apart And throw their ropes away from us!”

⁴¶He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them.

⁵Then He will speak to them in His anger And terrify them in His fury, saying,

⁶“But as for Me, I have installed My King Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”

⁷¶“I will announce the decree of the Lord: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have fathered You.

⁸‘Ask it of Me, and I will certainly give the nations as Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth as Your possession.

⁹‘You shall break them with a rod of iron, You shall shatter them like earthenware.’ ”

¹⁰¶Now then, you kings, use insight; Let yourselves be instructed, you judges of the earth.

¹¹Serve the Lord with reverence And rejoice with trembling.

¹²Kiss the Son, that He not be angry and you perish on the way, For His wrath may be kindled quickly. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
