1Why do the Gentiles rage,
And the nations contemplate a vain thing?
2The kings of the earth take their stand,
And the potentates plot together against the Lord
And against his messiah,
3And say, “Let us break their bonds apart
And cast their cords off us.”
4He who dwells in the heavens will laugh;
The Lord* will deride them.
5Then he will speak to them in his anger,
And in his fury he will terrify them.
6But I have anointed my king,
On Zion, my holy mountain.
7I will relate the Lord's statute.
He has said to me,
“You are my son;
Today I begot you.
8Ask me,
And I will give nations as your inheritance
And the ends of the earth as your possession.
9You will break them with a rod of iron;
You will dash them to pieces like a potter's jar.”
10So now, you kings, act wisely;
Be admonished, you judges of the earth.
11Serve the Lord with fear,
And rejoice in awe.
12Kiss the son
Lest he becomes angry
And you perish on the way,
When his anger is kindled but a little.
Happy are all those who trust in him.
