Psalms 2:1-6

NIRV

NIV

1 Why do the nations plan evil together? Why do they make useless plans?
1 Why do the nations conspireand the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand against the Lord. The rulers of the earth gather together against his anointed king.
2 The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the LORD and against his anointed, saying,
3 "Let us break free from their chains," they say. "Let us throw off their ropes."
3 “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.”
4 The One who sits on his throne in heaven laughs. The Lord makes fun of those rulers and their plans.
4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
5 When he is angry, he warns them. When his anger blazes out, he terrifies them.
5 He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
6 He says to them, "I have placed my king on my holy mountain of Zion."
6 “I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”
