Psalms Chapter 2

2 : 1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people 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 shall he speak to them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

2 : 6 Yet have I set my king on my holy hill of Zion.

2 : 7 I will declare the decree: the LORD has said to me, You are my Son; this day have I begotten you.

2 : 8 Ask of me, and I shall give you the heathen for your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.

2 : 9 You shall break them with a rod of iron; you shall dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

2 : 10 Be wise now therefore, O you kings: be instructed, you 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 you perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
