2:1  Why do the nations conspire, and the peoples plot in vain?

2:2  The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and his anointed, saying,

2:3  "Let us burst their bonds asunder, and cast their cords from us."

2:4  He who sits in the heavens laughs; the LORD has them in derision.

2:5  Then he will speak to them in his wrath, and terrify them in his fury, saying,

2:6  "I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill."

2:7  I will tell of the decree of the LORD: He said to me, "You are my son, today I have begotten you.

2:8  Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your possession.

2:9  You shall break them with a rod of iron, and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel."

2:10  Now therefore, O kings, be wise; be warned, O rulers of the earth.

2:11  Serve the LORD with fear, with trembling

2:12  kiss his feet, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way; for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all
