Why do the [a]nations rage
And the peoples meditate on a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand
And the rulers take counsel together
Against Yahweh and against His [b]Anointed, saying,
3 “Let us tear their fetters apart
And cast away their cords from us!”
4 He who [c]sits in the heavens laughs,
The Lord mocks them.
5 Then He speaks to them in His anger
And terrifies them in His fury, saying,
6 “But as for Me, I have [d]installed My King
Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
7 “I will surely tell of the [e]decree of Yahweh:
He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8 Ask of Me, and I will surely give the [f]nations as Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth as Your possession.
9 You shall [g]break them with a [h]rod of iron,
You shall shatter them like a potter’s vessel.’”
10 So now, O kings, show insight;
Take warning, O [i]judges of the earth.
11 Serve Yahweh with fear
And rejoice with trembling.
12 [j]Kiss the Son, lest He become angry, and you perish in the way,
For His [k]wrath may [l]soon be kindled.
How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!
