The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed.
1 Why are the nations in an uproar
And the peoples devising a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand
And the rulers take counsel together
Against the Lordand against HisAnointed, saying,
3 “Let us tear their fetters apart
And cast away their cords from us!”
4 He whosits in the heavens laughs,
The Lord scoffs at them.
5 Then He will speak to them in His anger
And terrify them in His fury, saying,
6 “But as for Me, I have installed My King
Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
7 “I will surely tell of the decree of the Lord:
He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8 Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance,
And theveryends of the earth as Your possession.
9 You shallbreak them with a rod of iron,
You shall shatter them like earthenware.’ ”
10 Now therefore, O kings, show discernment;
Take warning, Ojudges of the earth.
11 Worship the Lordwith reverence
And rejoice with trembling.
12 Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perishinthe way,
For His wrath maysoon be kindled.
How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
