Psalms 2:1-7

DBY

NIV

1 Why are the nations in tumultuous agitation, and [why] do the peoples meditate a vain thing?
1 Why do the nations conspireand the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the princes plot together, against Jehovah and against his anointed:
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 their bonds asunder, and cast away their cords from us!
3 “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.”
4 He that dwelleth in the heavens shall laugh, the Lord shall have them in derision.
4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
5 Then will he speak to them in his anger, and in his fierce displeasure will he terrify them:
5 He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
6 And *I* have anointed my king upon Zion, the hill of my holiness.
6 “I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”
7 I will declare the decree: Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; *I* this day have begotten thee.
7 I will proclaim the LORD’s decree: He said to me, “You are my son; today I have become your father.
