Compare all
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the arulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His bAnointed, saying, 
3 “Let aus break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”

The Lord shall hold them in derision.

And distress them in His deep displeasure:

1On My holy hill of Zion.”

Today I have begotten You. 
8 Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
