Psalm 2 New King James Version (NKJV)

The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom^(A)

2 Why ^(B)do the ^[a]nations ^[b]rage,
And the people plot a ^[c]vain thing?
²The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the ^(C)rulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His ^(D)Anointed,^[d] saying,
³“Let ^(E)us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”

⁴He who sits in the heavens ^(F)shall laugh;
The Lord shall hold them in derision.
⁵Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,
And distress them in His deep displeasure:
⁶“Yet I have ^[e]set My King
^[f]On My holy hill of Zion.”

⁷“I will declare the ^[g]decree:
The Lord has said to Me,
^(G)‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
⁸Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
⁹^(H)You shall ^[h]break them with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

¹⁰Now therefore, be wise, O kings;
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
¹¹Serve the Lord with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
¹²^[i]Kiss the Son, lest ^[j]He be angry,
And you perish in the way,
When ^(I)His wrath is kindled but a little.
^(J)Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
