Psalm 2
English Standard Version Anglicised
The Reign of the Lord's Anointed
2 (A)Why do (B)the nations rage[a]
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and against his (C)Anointed, saying,
3 “Let us (D)burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”
4 He who (E)sits in the heavens (F)laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his (G)wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6 “As for me, I have (H)set my King
on (I)Zion, my (J)holy hill.”
7 I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, (K)“You are my Son;
today I have begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and (L)the ends of the earth your possession.
9 You shall (M)break[b] them with (N)a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like (O)a potter's vessel.”
10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 (P)Serve the Lord with (Q)fear,
and (R)rejoice with (S)trembling.
12 (T)Kiss (U)the Son,
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his (V)wrath is quickly kindled.
(W)Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Sit at My Right Hand

110 (A)The Lord says to my Lord:
(B)“Sit at my right hand,
(C)until I make your enemies your (D)footstool.”
Daniel 7:13
English Standard Version Anglicised
The Son of Man Is Given Dominion
13 “I saw in the night visions,
and (A)behold, with the clouds of heaven
there came one like a son of man,
and he came to the (B)Ancient of Days
and was presented before him.
Daniel 7:14
English Standard Version Anglicised
14 (A)And to him was given dominion
and glory and a kingdom,
that all (B)peoples, nations, and languages
should serve him;
(C)his dominion is an everlasting dominion,
which shall not pass away,
and his kingdom one
that shall not be destroyed.
