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. |
