1 Why are the nations so angry?Why are the people making useless plans?
2 The kings of the earth prepare to fight,and their leaders make plans togetheragainst the Lordand his appointed one.
3 They say, “Let’s break the chains that hold us backand throw off the ropes that tie us down.”
4 But the one who sits in heaven laughs;the Lord makes fun of them.
5 Then the Lord warns themand frightens them with his anger.
6 He says, “I have appointed my own kingto rule in Jerusalem on my holy mountain, Zion.”
