1 Why did the pagan nations rage, and the nations devise vain things? 2 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers gathered themselves together, against the Lord, and against his Christ; Pause. 3 saying, Let us break through their bonds, and cast away their yoke from us. 4 He that dwells in the heavens shall laugh them to scorn, and the Lord shall mock them. 5 Then he will speak to them in his anger, and trouble them in his fury. 6 But I have been made king by him on Zion his holy mountain, 7 declaring the ordinance of the Lord: the Lord said to me, You are my Son, today I have begotten you. 8 Ask of me, and I will give you the pagan nations for your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for your possession. 9 You shall rule them with a rod of iron; you shall dash them in pieces as a potter's vessel. 10 Now therefore understand, you kings: be instructed, all you that judge the earth. 11 Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice in him with trembling. 12 Accept correction, for fear that the Lord might be angry, and you should perish from the righteous way: whenever his fierce anger shall be suddenly kindled, blessed are all they that trust in him.
