Why do the nations rage ,
And the peoples plot a
vain thing
?
Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in
vain?
The kings of the earth take a
stand ,
And the rulers take
counsel
together, Against Yahweh,
and against his anointed ,
saying,
The kings of the earth take their
stand and the rulers gather
together, against the
LORD
and against His Anointed One:
"Let's
break their bonds
apart,
And cast away their cords from
us
. "
“Let
us
break Their chains
and cast away Their cords. ”
He
who
sits
in
the heavens
will
laugh.
The Lord will
have
them in
derision
.
The One
enthroned
in
heaven
laughs;
the Lord taunts
them.
Then he will
speak
to
them in his anger, And terrify
them in his wrath
:
Then He rebukes
them in His anger, and terrifies
them in His fury
:
"Yet
I have set
my king on my holy hill
of
Zion
. "
“
I have installed
My King on Zion,
upon
My holy mountain
. ”
I will tell
of
the decree .
Yahweh
said
to me ,
"
You are my son .
Today I have become your father.
I will proclaim
the decree spoken
to Me by
the
LORD:
“
You are My Son ;
today I have become Your Father.
Ask of
me, and I will give
the nations for
your inheritance, The uttermost
parts
of the earth for
your possession.
Ask Me, and I will make
the nations Your inheritance, the ends
of the earth Your possession.
You shall
break them with a
rod
of
iron .
You shall
dash
them in
pieces
like a
potter's
vessel
. "
You will
break them with an
iron scepter;
You will
shatter
them like pottery
. ”
Now
therefore be wise, you
kings .
Be instructed
, you
judges of the earth.
Therefore be wise, O
kings ;
be admonished
, O
judges of the earth.
Serve Yahweh
with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
Serve the
LORD
with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Kiss the son, lest he be angry ,
and you perish in the
way
, For
his wrath will
soon
be
kindled
. Blessed are all those
who take refuge in him.
Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish in your
rebellion
, when
His wrath ignites
in
an
instant
. Blessed are all who take refuge in Him.
