| ¶ | Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? | ||
| The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, [saying], | |||
| Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. | |||
| He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. | |||
| Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. | |||
| Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. | |||
| I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou [art] my Son; this day have I begotten thee. | |||
| Ask of me, and I shall give [thee] the heathen [for] thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth [for] thy possession. | |||
| Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. | |||
| Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. | |||
| Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. | |||
| Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish [from] the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed [are] all they that put their trust in him. |
