ASV(i)
1 Why do the nations rage,
And the peoples meditate a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against Jehovah, and against his anointed, [saying], 3 Let us break their bonds asunder,
And cast away their cords from us. 4 He that sitteth in the heavens will laugh:
The Lord will have them in derision. 5 Then will he speak unto them in his wrath,
And vex them in his sore displeasure: 6 Yet I have set my king
Upon my holy hill of Zion. 7 I will tell of the decree:
Jehovah said unto me, Thou art my son;
This day have I begotten thee. 8 Ask of me, and I will give [thee] the nations for thine inheritance,
And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
