Psalms - Chapter 2

¹ Why this uproar among the nations, this impotent muttering of the peoples?

² Kings of the earth take up position, princes plot together against Yahweh and his anointed,

³ 'Now let us break their fetters! Now let us throw off their bonds!'

⁴ He who is enthroned in the heavens laughs, Yahweh makes a mockery of them,

⁵ then in his anger rebukes them, in his rage he strikes them with terror.

⁶ 'I myself have anointed my king on Zion my holy mountain.'

⁷ I will proclaim the decree of Yahweh: He said to me, 'You are my son, today have I fathered you.

⁸ Ask of me, and I shall give you the nations as your birthright, the whole wide world as your possession.

⁹ With an iron sceptre you will break them, shatter them like so many pots.'

¹⁰ So now, you kings, come to your senses, you earthly rulers, learn your lesson!

¹¹ In fear be submissive to Yahweh;

¹² with trembling kiss his feet, lest he be angry and your way come to nothing, for his fury flares up in a moment. How blessed are all who take refuge in him!
