Psalms 2:2-6 The Kings and Rulers Take Counsel against the Lord

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.”
