KJ3 Literal Translation
Psalms 2
The kingdom of Christ. Kings are exhorted to accept it.
1Why have the nations raged and the peoples are meditating vanity?
2The kings of the earth set themselves; yea, the rulers have plotted together against Jehovah and His Anointed One, saying,
3We will break their bands in two, and throw off their cords from us.
4He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall mock at them.
5Then He will speak to them in His anger, and He will terrify them in His wrath;
6Yea, I have anointed My king on Zion, My holy Mount.
7I will declare concerning the statute of Jehovah: He said to Me, You are My Son. Today I have begotten You.
8Ask of Me, and I will give the nations as Your inheritance; and the uttermost parts of the earth as Your possession.
9You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall smash them like a potter's vessel.
10And now be wise, O kings; be taught, O judges of the earth:
11Serve Jehovah with fear; yea, rejoice with trembling.
12Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, and you perish from the way, when His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all the ones seeking refuge in Him!
