诗篇 2
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
神膏立的君王必审判列国
2 列国为甚么骚动？
万民为甚么空谋妄想？
2 世上的君王起来，
首领聚在一起，
敌对耶和华和他所膏立的，说：
3 “我们来挣断他们给我们的束缚，
摆脱他们的绳索！”
4 那坐在天上的必发笑，
主必讥笑他们。
5 那时，他必在烈怒中对他们讲话，
在震怒中使他们惊慌，说：
6 “我已经在锡安我的圣山上，
立了我的君王。”
7 受膏者说：“我要宣告耶和华的谕旨：
耶和华对我说：‘你是我的儿子，
我今日生了你。
8 你求我，我就把列国赐给你作产业，
把全地都归属于你。
9 你必用铁杖击打他们，
好象打碎陶器一样粉碎他们。’”
10 现在，君王啊！你们要谨慎。
地上的审判官啊！你们应当听劝告。
11 你们要以敬畏的态度事奉耶和华，
又应当存战兢的心而欢呼。
12 你们要用嘴亲吻子，
否则他一发怒，你们就在路上灭亡，
因为他的怒气快要发作。
凡是投靠他的，都是有福的。
Psalm 2
International Children’s Bible
God’s Chosen King
2 Why are the nations so angry?
Why are the people making useless plans?
2 The kings of the earth prepare to fight.
Their leaders make plans together
against the Lord
and his appointed king.
3 “Let’s break the chains that hold us prisoners.
Let’s throw off the ropes that tie us,” the nations say.
4 But the Lord in heaven laughs.
He makes fun of them.
5 Then the Lord warns them.
He frightens them with his anger.
6 He says, “I have appointed my own king!
He will rule in Jerusalem on my holy mountain.”
7 Now I will tell you what the Lord has declared:
He said to me, “You are my son.
Today I have become your father.
8 If you ask me, I will give you the nations.
All the people on earth will be yours.
9 You will make them obey you by punishing them with an iron rod.
You will break them into pieces like pottery.”
10 So, kings, be wise.
Rulers, learn this lesson.
11 Obey the Lord with great fear.
Be happy, but tremble.
12 Show that you are loyal to his son.
Otherwise you will be destroyed.
He can quickly become angry.
But happy are those who trust him for protection.
Psalm 2
Revised Standard Version
God’s Promise to His Anointed
2 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]
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way;
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
