Psalms 2Book 19 of 66 · 12 verses · MBT primary, NKJV fallback where MBT pending
- Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
- The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying,
- Let us break their bonds in pieces and cast away their cords from us.
- He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall hold them in derision.
- Then He shall speak to them in His wrath, and distress them in His deep displeasure:
- Yet I have set My King on My holy hill of Zion.
- I will declare the decree: The LORD has said to Me, 'You are My Son, today I have begotten You.
- Ask of Me, and I will give You the nations for Your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for Your possession.
- You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.
- Now therefore, be wise, O kings; be instructed, you judges of the earth.
- Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
- Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, and you perish in the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
