Chapter 2

1


 

  Why have the Gentiles raged, and the people devised vain things?  

 

 

-

2


 

  The kings of the earth stood up, and the princes met together, against the Lord and against his Christ.  

 

 

-

3


 

  Let us break their bonds asunder: and let us cast away their yoke from us.  

 

 

-

4


 

  He that dwelleth in heaven shall laugh at them: and the Lord shall deride them.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Then shall he speak to them in his anger, and trouble them in his rage.  

 

 

-

6


 

  But I am appointed king by him over Sion his holy mountain, preaching his commandment.  

 

 

-

7


 

  The Lord hath said to me: Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Ask of me, and I will give thee the Gentiles for thy inheritance, and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Thou shalt rule them with a rod of iron, and shalt break them in pieces like a potter's vessel.  

 

 

-

10


 

  And now, O ye kings, understand: receive instruction, you that judge the earth.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Serve ye the Lord with fear: and rejoice unto him with trembling.  

 

 

-

12


 

  Embrace discipline, lest at any time the Lord be angry, and you perish from the just way.  

 

 

-

13


 

  When his wrath shall be kindled in a short time, blessed are all they that trust in him.
