4 The One who sits on his throne in heaven laughs. The Lord makes fun of those rulers and their plans.
5 When he is angry, he warns them. When his anger blazes out, he terrifies them.
6 He says to them, "I have placed my king on my holy mountain of Zion."
7 I will announce what the Lord has promised. He said to me, "You are my son. Today I have become your father.
8 Ask me, and I will give the nations to you. All nations on earth will belong to you.
9 You will rule them with an iron rod. You will break them to pieces like clay pots."
10 Kings, be wise! Rulers of the earth, be warned!
