Psalms 2
2
Coronation of Messianic King
1Why are the nations in an uproar, and the peoples mutter vanity?
2The kings of earth set themselves up and rulers conspire together against Adonai and against His Anointed One :
3“Let’s rip their chains apart, and throw their ropes off us!”
4He who sits in heaven laughs! Adonai mocks them.
5So He will speak to them in His anger, and terrify them in His fury:
6“I have set up My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
7I will declare the decree of Adonai. He said to me: “You are My Son— today I have become Your Father.
8Ask Me, and I will give the nations as Your inheritance, and the far reaches of the earth as Your possession.
9You shall break the nations with an iron scepter. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s jar.”
10So now, O kings, be wise, take warning, O judges of the earth!
11Serve Adonai with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12Kiss the Son, lest He become angry, and you perish along your way— since His wrath may flare up suddenly. Happy is everyone taking refuge in Him!

Psalm 2
2
The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed
1 # Cited Acts 4:25, 26 Why do #[Ps. 46:6]the nations rage#2:1 Or nations noisily assemble
and the peoples plot in vain?
2The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and against his #Ps. 18:50; 20:6; 45:7; 89:20Anointed, saying,
3“Let us #Jer. 5:5burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”
4He who #Ps. 11:4; 29:10; [Isa. 40:22] sits in the heavens #Ps. 37:13; 59:8; Job 22:19; Prov. 1:26laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision.
5Then he will speak to them in his #Rev. 6:16, 17wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6“As for me, I have #Prov. 8:23 set my King
on #2 Sam. 5:7; Ps. 110:2 Zion, my #Ps. 3:4; 15:1; 43:3; 99:9holy hill.”
7I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, #Rom. 1:4; Cited Acts 13:33; Heb. 1:5; 5:5“You are my Son;
today I have begotten you.
8Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and #[Ps. 72:8; 89:27; Dan. 7:14]the ends of the earth your possession.
9You shall #Ps. 89:23; Job 34:24 break#2:9 Revocalization yields (compare Septuagint) You shall rule them with #Rev. 2:27; 12:5; 19:15 a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like #Isa. 30:14; Jer. 19:11a potter’s vessel.”
10Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 #
Heb. 12:28 Serve the Lord with #Phil. 2:12 fear,
and #Phil. 4:4rejoice with #Phil. 2:12 trembling.
12 #
1 Sam. 10:1; 1 Kgs. 19:18; [John 5:23] Kiss #Prov. 31:2 the Son,
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his #ver. 5 wrath is quickly kindled.
#
Ps. 34:8; 84:12; Prov. 16:20; Jer. 17:7; [Ps. 146:5; Isa. 30:18] Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
