Why do the heathen{H1471} rage{H7283}{(H8804)}, and the people{H3816} imagine{H1897}{(H8799)} a vain thing{H7385}?

The kings{H4428} of the earth{H776} set{H3320}{(H8691)} themselves, and the rulers{H7336}{(H8802)} take counsel{H3245}{(H8738)} together{H3162}, against the LORD{H3068}, and against his anointed{H4899}, saying,

Let us break{H5423} their bands{H4147} asunder{H5423}{(H8762)}, and cast away{H7993}{(H8686)} their cords{H5688} from us.

He that sitteth{H3427}{(H8802)} in the heavens{H8064} shall laugh{H7832}{(H8799)}: the Lord{H136} shall have them in derision{H3932}{(H8799)}.

Then shall he speak{H1696}{(H8762)} unto them in his wrath{H639}, and vex{H926}{(H8762)} them in his sore displeasure{H2740}.

Yet have I set{H5258}{(H8804)} my king{H4428} upon my holy{H6944} hill{H2022} of Zion{H6726}.

I will declare{H5608}{(H8762)} the decree{H2706}: the LORD{H3068} hath said{H559}{(H8804)} unto me, Thou art my Son{H1121}; this day{H3117} have I begotten{H3205}{(H8804)} thee.

Ask{H7592}{(H8798)} of me, and I shall give{H5414}{(H8799)} thee the heathen{H1471} for thine inheritance{H5159}, and the uttermost parts{H657} of the earth{H776} for thy possession{H272}.

Thou shalt break{H7489}{(H8799)} them with a rod{H7626} of iron{H1270}; thou shalt dash them in pieces{H5310}{(H8762)} like a potter's{H3335}{(H8802)} vessel{H3627}.

Be wise{H7919}{(H8685)} now therefore, O ye kings{H4428}: be instructed{H3256}{(H8734)}, ye judges{H8199}{(H8802)} of the earth{H776}.

Serve{H5647}{(H8798)} the LORD{H3068} with fear{H3374}, and rejoice{H1523}{(H8798)} with trembling{H7461}.

Kiss{H5401}{(H8761)} the Son{H1248}, lest he be angry{H599}{(H8799)}, and ye perish{H6}{(H8799)} from the way{H1870}, when his wrath{H639} is kindled{H1197}{(H8799)} but a little{H4592}. Blessed{H835} are all they that put their trust{H2620}{(H8802)} in him.
