Psalms 2:1-9

VIN(i) 1 Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot in vain? 2 The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the LORD and against his Anointed One. 3 "Let us break their bands asunder and throw off from us their yoke." 4 The One who dwells in heaven laughs. the LORD scoffs at them. 5 Then he rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his rage (fury). He says: 6 "But I myself have installed my king on Zion, my holy hill." 7 I will tell of the decree. The LORD said to me, "You are my son. Today I have become your father. 8 "Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession. 9 "You will rule them with an iron scepter. You will dash them to pieces like pottery!"
