Noyes - Psalms - 2

2:1  Why do the heathen rage, And the nations meditate a vain thing?

2:2  Why do the kings of the earth rise up, And the princes combine together, Against Jehovah, and against his anointed king?

2:3  "Let us break their bonds asunder; Let us cast away from us their fetters!"

2:4  He that sitteth in heaven will laugh; The Lord will have them in derision.

2:5  Then shall he speak to them in his wrath, And confound them in his hot displeasure.

2:6  "I myself have anointed my king, Upon Zion, my holy hill!"

2:7  I will declare the decree of Jehovah: He hath said to me, "Thou art my son; This day I have begotten thee.

2:8  Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance, And the ends of the earth for thy possession.

2:9  Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel."

2:10  Be wise, therefore, O ye kings! Be admonished, ye rulers of the earth!

2:11  Be subject to Jehovah with awe, And fear with trembling!

2:12  Kiss the son, lest He be angry, and ye perish in your way; For soon shall his wrath be kindled. Happy are all they who seek refuge in him.
