Tehillim (Psa) 2
2
1Why are the nations in an uproar,
the peoples grumbling in vain?
2The earth’s kings are taking positions,
leaders conspiring together,
against Adonai
and his anointed.
3They cry, “Let’s break their fetters!
Let’s throw off their chains!”
4He who sits in heaven laughs;
Adonai looks at them in derision.
5Then in his anger he rebukes them,
terrifies them in his fury.
6“I myself have installed my king
on Tziyon, my holy mountain.”
7“I will proclaim the decree:
Adonai said to me,
‘You are my son;
today I became your father.
8Ask of me, and I will make
the nations your inheritance;
the whole wide world
will be your possession.
9You will break them with an iron rod,
shatter them like a clay pot.’”
10Therefore, kings, be wise;
be warned, you judges of the earth.
11Serve Adonai with fear;
rejoice, but with trembling.
12Kiss the son, lest he be angry,
and you perish along the way,
when suddenly his anger blazes.
How blessed are all who take refuge in him.

The Reign of the Lord's Anointed
1 #
Acts 4.25,26. Why do the heathen rage,
and the people imagine a vain thing?
2The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord, and against his Anointed, saying,
3Let us break their bands asunder,
and cast away their cords from us.
4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh:
the Lord shall have them in derision.
5Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath,
and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6Yet have I set my King
upon my holy hill of Zion.
7 #
Acts 13.33; Heb 1.5; 5.5. I will declare the decree:
the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son;
this day have I begotten thee.
8Ask of me,
and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,
and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9 #
Rev 2.26,27; 12.5; 19.15. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron;
thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
10Be wise now therefore, O ye kings:
be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11Serve the Lord with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
12Kiss the Son, lest he be angry,
and ye perish from the way,
when his wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
