¹ Why^(a) do the nations rebel^[a](b)
and the peoples plot in vain?^(c)
2 The kings of the earth take their stand,^(d)
and the rulers conspire together
against the Lord and His Anointed One:^[b](e)
3 "Let us tear off their chains
and free ourselves from their restraints."^[c](f)

⁴ The One enthroned^[d] in heaven laughs;
the Lord ridicules them.^(g)
5 Then He speaks to them in His anger
and terrifies them in His wrath:^(h)
6 "I have consecrated My King^[e]
on Zion, My holy mountain."⁽ⁱ⁾

⁷ I will declare the Lord's decree:
He said to Me, "You are My Son;^[f]
today I have become Your^[g] Father.^(j)
8 Ask of Me,
and I will make the nations Your^[h] inheritance
and the ends of the earth Your^[i] possession.^(k)
9 You will break^[j] them with a rod of iron;
You^[k] will shatter them like pottery."^[l](l)

¹⁰ So now, kings, be wise;
receive instruction, you judges of the earth.
¹¹ Serve the Lord with reverential awe
and rejoice with trembling.^(m)
12 Pay homage to^[m] the Son or He^[n] will be angry
and you will perish in your rebellion,^[o](n)
for His^[p] anger may ignite at any moment.^(o)
All those who take refuge in Him^[q] are happy.^(p)
