Psalms 2:2-12 ▼

2 The kynges of the earth stande vp: and the rulers take counsell together against god, and against his annointed.

3 Let vs breake say they their bondes a sunder: and cast away their cordes from vs.

4 He that dwelleth in heauen wyll laugh them to scorne: the Lorde wyll haue them in derision.

5 Then wyll he speake vnto them in his wrath: and he wyll astonie them with feare in his sore displeasure.

6 Saying euen I haue annointed him my kyng: vpon my holy hyll of Sion.

7 I wyll declare the decree, God sayde vnto me: thou art my sonne, this day I haue begotten thee.

8 Desire of me, and I wyll geue thee the heathen for thyne inheritaunce: and the vttermost partes of the earth for thy possession.

9 Thou shalt bruise them with a rod of iron: and breake them in peeces like a potters vessell.

10 Wherfore be you nowe wel aduised O ye kinges: be you learned ye that are iudges of the earth.

11 Serue ye God in feare: and reioyce ye with a trembling.

12 Kisse ye the sonne lest that he be angrye, and so ye perishe from the way, if his wrath be neuer so litle kindled: blessed are all they that put their trust in hym.
