1Why gnashed with teeth heathen men; and peoples thought vain things?2The kings of earth stood together; and princes came together against the Lord, and against his Christ.3Break we the bonds of them; and cast we away the yoke of them from us.4He that dwelleth in heavens shall scorn them; and the Lord shall bemock them.5Then he shall speak to them in his wrath; and he shall trouble them in his strong vengeance.6Soothly I am ordained of him a king upon Zion, his holy hill;7preaching his commandment. The Lord said to me, Thou art my son; I have begotten thee today.8Ask thou of me, and I shall give to thee heathen men for thine heritage; and for thy possession the terms of earth.9Thou shalt govern them in an iron rod; and thou shalt break them altogether as the vessel of a potter.10And now, ye kings, understand; ye that deem the earth, be ye learned.11Serve ye the Lord with dread; and make ye full out joy to him with trembling.12Take ye lore of chastising; lest the Lord be wroth sometime, and ye perish from the just way. When his wrath shall burn out in short time; blessed be all they, that trust in him.
