2:1 Why do the heathen 1471 rage 7283 8804, and the people 3816 imagine 1897 8799 a vain thing 7385?(rage: or, tumultuously assemble)(imagine: Heb. meditate)

2:2 The kings 4428 of the earth 776 set 3320 8691 themselves, and the rulers 7336 8802 take counsel 3245 8738 together 3162, against the LORD 3068, and against his anointed 4899, [saying],

2:3 Let us break 5423 0 their bands 4147 asunder 5423 8762, and cast away 7993 8686 their cords 5688 from us.

2:4 He that sitteth 3427 8802 in the heavens 8064 shall laugh 7832 8799: the Lord 136 shall have them in derision 3932 8799.

2:5 Then shall he speak 1696 8762 unto them in his wrath 639, and vex 926 8762 them in his sore displeasure 2740.(vex: or, trouble)

2:6 Yet have I set 5258 8804 my king 4428 upon my holy 6944 hill 2022 of Zion 6726.(set: Heb. anointed)(upon…: Heb. upon Zion, the hill of my holiness)

2:7 I will declare 5608 8762 the decree 2706: the LORD 3068 hath said 559 8804 unto me, Thou [art] my Son 1121; this day 3117 have I begotten 3205 8804 thee.(the decree: or, for a decree)

2:8 Ask 7592 8798 of me, and I shall give 5414 8799 [thee] the heathen 1471 [for] thine inheritance 5159, and the uttermost parts 657 of the earth 776 [for] thy possession 272.

2:9 Thou shalt break 7489 8799 them with a rod 7626 of iron 1270; thou shalt dash them in pieces 5310 8762 like a potter's 3335 8802 vessel 3627.

2:10 Be wise 7919 8685 now therefore, O ye kings 4428: be instructed 3256 8734, ye judges 8199 8802 of the earth 776.

2:11 Serve 5647 8798 the LORD 3068 with fear 3374, and rejoice 1523 8798 with trembling 7461.
