Salmos 2
Reina-Valera Antigua
2 ¿POR qué se amotinan las gentes, Y los pueblos piensan vanidad?
2 Estarán los reyes de la tierra, Y príncipes consultarán unidos Contra Jehová, y contra su ungido, diciendo:
3 Rompamos sus coyundas, Y echemos de nosotros sus cuerdas.
4 El que mora en los cielos se reirá; El Señor se burlará de ellos.
5 Entonces hablará á ellos en su furor, Y turbarálos con su ira.
6 Yo empero he puesto mi rey Sobre Sión, monte de mi santidad.
7 Yo publicaré el decreto: Jehová me ha dicho: Mi hijo eres tú; Yo te engendré hoy.
8 Pídeme, y te daré por heredad las gentes, Y por posesión tuya los términos de la tierra.
9 Quebrantarlos has con vara de hierro: Como vaso de alfarero los desmenuzarás.
10 Y ahora, reyes, entended: Admitid corrección, jueces de la tierra.
11 Servid á Jehová con temor, Y alegraos con temblor.
12 Besad al Hijo, porque no se enoje, y perezcáis en el camino, Cuando se encendiere un poco su furor. Bienaventurados todos los que en él confían.
Psalm 2
New King James Version
The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom(A)
2 Why (B)do the [a]nations [b]rage,
And the people plot a [c]vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the (C)rulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His (D)Anointed,[d] saying,
3 “Let (E)us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens (F)shall laugh;
The Lord shall hold them in derision.
5 Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,
And distress them in His deep displeasure:
6 “Yet I have [e]set My King
[f]On My holy hill of Zion.”
7 “I will declare the [g]decree:
The Lord has said to Me,
(G)‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8 Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
9 (H)You shall [h]break them with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”
10 Now therefore, be wise, O kings;
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
12 [i]Kiss the Son, lest [j]He be angry,
And you perish in the way,
When (I)His wrath is kindled but a little.
(J)Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
