詩篇 2
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
上帝膏立的君王
2 列國為何咆哮？
萬民為何枉費心機？
2 世上的君王一同行動，
官長聚集商議，
要抵擋耶和華和祂所膏立的王。
3 他們說：
「讓我們掙斷他們的鎖鏈，
脫去他們的捆索！」
4 坐在天上寶座上的主必笑他們，
祂必嘲笑他們。
5 那時，祂必怒斥他們，
使他們充滿恐懼。
6 祂說：
「在我的錫安聖山上，
我已立了我的君王。」
7 那位君王說：
「我要宣告耶和華的旨意，
祂對我說，『你是我的兒子，
我今日成為你父親。
8 你向我祈求，我必把列國賜給你作產業，
讓天下都歸你所有。
9 你要用鐵杖統治他們，
把他們像陶器一般打碎。』」
10 君王啊，要慎思明辨！
世上的統治者啊，要接受勸誡！
11 要以敬畏的心事奉耶和華，
要喜樂也要戰戰兢兢。
12 要降服在祂兒子面前，
免得祂發怒，
你們便在罪惡中滅亡，
因為祂的怒氣將臨。
投靠祂的人有福了！
Psalm 2
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
Psalm 2
God’s Promise to His Anointed
1 Why do the nations conspire,
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and his anointed, saying,
3 “Let us burst their bonds asunder,
and cast their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord has them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6 “I have set my king on Zion, my holy hill.”
7 I will tell of the decree of the Lord:
He said to me, “You are my son;
today I have begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and the ends of the earth your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron,
and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
with trembling 12 kiss his feet,[a]
or he will be angry, and you will perish in the way;
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Happy are all who take refuge in him.
