Psalms 2:1-6
1
Psalm 2
Why do the nations conspire
and the peoples plot in vain?
2
The kings of the earth take their stand
and the rulers gather together
against the Lord
and against his Anointed One.
3
“Let us break their chains,” they say,
“and throw off their fetters.”
4
The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.
5
Then he rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
6
“I have installed my King
on Zion, my holy hill.”
