Psalm 2
Darby Bible Translation

The Triumphant Messiah

(Acts 4:23-31)

1Why are the nations in tumultuous agitation, and [why] do the peoples meditate a vain thing?

2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the princes plot together, against Jehovah and against his anointed:

3Let us break their bonds asunder, and cast away their cords from us!

4He that dwelleth in the heavens shall laugh, the Lord shall have them in derision.

5Then will he speak to them in his anger, and in his fierce displeasure will he terrify them:

6And I have anointed my king upon Zion, the hill of my holiness.

7I will declare the decree: Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; I this day have begotten thee.

8Ask of me, and I will give thee nations for an inheritance, and for thy possession the ends of the earth:

9Thou shalt break them with a sceptre of iron, as a potter's vessel thou shalt dash them in pieces.

10And now, O kings, be ye wise, be admonished, ye judges of the earth.

11Serve Jehovah with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

12Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way, though his anger burn but a little. Blessed are all who have their trust in him.
