Psa Psalms, psalm Book of Psalms, psalm 2
Why do the nations rage,
and the peoples plot a vain thing?Act 4:25
The kings of the earth take a stand,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD, and against his Anointed,2:2 The word “Anointed” is the same as the word for “Messiah” or “Christ” saying,
“Let’s break their bonds apart,
and cast their cords from us.”
He who sits in the heavens will laugh.
The Lord2:4 The word translated “Lord” is “Adonai.” will have them in derision.Deu 28:63; Pro 1:26
Then he will speak to them in his anger,
and terrify them in his wrath:
“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”Psa 93:1; Jhn 18:37; Heb 12:22
I will tell of the decree:
The LORD said to me, “You are my son.
Today I have become your father.Act 13:33; Heb 1:5; Heb 5:5
Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance,
the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.Psa 22:27
You shall break them with a rod of iron.
You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”Rev 2:27; Rev 19:15
Now therefore be wise, you kings.
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.Wis 6:2
Serve the LORD with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
Give sincere homage to the Son,2:12 or, Kiss the son lest he be angry, and you perish on the way,
for his wrath will soon be kindled.
Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.Psa 34:8; Pro 16:20; Isa 30:18; 1Pe 2:6
