And distress them in His deep displeasure:

¹On My holy hill of Zion.”

The Lord has said to Me,
^a‘You are My Son,
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.

You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

Be instructed, you judges of the earth.

And rejoice with trembling.
