Psalm 2 (New American Standard)
View In My BibleThe Reign of the LORD'S Anointed.
1 Why are 1the anations in an uproar And the peoples 2devising a vain thing ? 2 The 3kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers take counsel together 4Against the LORD and against His b5Anointed, saying, 3 "Let us 6tear their fetters apart And cast away their cords from us!" 4 He who csits in the heavens 7laughs, The Lord 8scoffs at them. 5 Then He will speak to them in His 9anger And 10terrify them in His fury, saying, 6 "But as for Me, I have dinstalled 11My King Upon Zion, 12My holy mountain." 7 "I will surely tell of the edecree of the LORD : He said to Me, 'You are 13My Son, Today I have begotten You. 8 'Ask of Me, and 14I will surely give 15the fnations as Your inheritance, And the very 16ends of the earth as Your possession. 9 'You shall g17break them with a hrod of iron, You shall 18shatter them like iearthenware .' " 10 Now therefore, O kings, 19show discernment ; Take warning, O jjudges of the earth. 11 kWorship the LORD with l20reverence And rejoice with 21trembling. 12 mDo homage to 22the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, For 23His wrath may nsoon be kindled. How blessed are all who 24take refuge in Him!New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, California.
