[1] Why are the nations in an uproar? And why do the peoples mutter in vain?
[2] The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together, against 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, and against His anointed:
[3] 'Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.'
[4] He that sitteth in heaven laugheth, the Lord hath them in derision.
[5] Then will He speak unto them in His wrath, and affright them in His sore displeasure:
[6] 'Truly it is I that have established My king upon Zion, My holy mountain.'
[7] I will tell of the decree: 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 said unto me: 'Thou art My son, this day have I begotten thee.
[8] Ask of Me, and I will give the nations for thine inheritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession.
[9] Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.'
[10] Now therefore, O ye kings, be wise; be admonished, ye judges of the earth.
[11] Serve 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
[12] Do homage in purity, lest He be angry, and ye perish in the way, when suddenly His wrath is kindled. Happy are all they that take refuge in Him.
