The Reign of the LORD's Anointed |
| 1 | Why do the heathen rage,
| |
| and the people imagine a vain thing? |
|
|
| 2 | The kings of the earth set themselves,
| |
| and the rulers take counsel together, |
| against the LORD, and against his Anointed, Acts 4.25, 26 saying, |
|
|
| 3 | Let us break their bands asunder,
| |
| and cast away their cords from us. |
|
|
| 4 | He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh:
| |
| the Lord shall have them in derision. |
|
|
| 5 | Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath,
| |
| and vex them in his sore displeasure. |
|
|
| 6 | Yet have I set my King
| |
| upon my holy hill of Zion. |
|
|
| 7 | I will declare the decree:
|
| 8 | Ask of me,
| |
| and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, |
| and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. |
|
|
| 9 | Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; Rev. 2.26, 27 ; 12.5 ; 19.15
| |
| thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. |
|
|
| 10 | Be wise now therefore, O ye kings:
| |
| be instructed, ye judges of the earth. |
|
|
| 11 | Serve the LORD with fear,
| |
| and rejoice with trembling. |
|
|
| 12 | Kiss the Son, lest he be angry,
| |
| and ye perish from the way, |
| when his wrath is kindled but a little. |
| Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. |
