1 Why do the nations rage,and the peoples plot a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take a stand,and the rulers take counsel together,against the Lord, and against his Anointed, saying,
3 “Let’s break their bonds apart,and cast their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens will laugh.The Lord will have them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his anger,and terrify them in his wrath:
6 “Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”
7 I will tell of the decree.The Lord said to me, “You are my son.Today I have become your father.
