3. “Let us tear off their bondsand cast away their ropes from us.”
4. He who sits in the heavens laughs;the Lord ridicules them.
5. Then He will speak to them in His wrathand terrify them in His burning anger:
6. “I have installed My kingon Zion, My holy hill.”
7. I will declare the decree of the Lord: He said to me, “You are My son;this day have I 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.
9. You will break them with a scepter of iron;you will dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10. Now then, you kings, be wise;be admonished, you judges of the earth.
11. Serve the Lord with fear;tremble with trepidation!
12. Kiss the son, lest He become angry,and you perish in the way,for His wrath kindles in a flash.Blessed are all who seek refuge in Him.
