 神膏立的君王必審判列國

列國為甚麼騷動?

萬民為甚麼空謀妄想?

世上的君王起來,

首領聚在一起,

敵對耶和華和他所膏立的,說:

“我們來掙斷他們給我們的束縛,

擺脫他們的繩索!”

那坐在天上的必發笑,

主必譏笑他們。

那時,他必在烈怒中對他們講話,

在震怒中使他們驚慌,說:

“我已經在錫安我的聖山上,

立了我的君王。”

受膏者說:“我要宣告耶和華的諭旨:

耶和華對我說:‘你是我的兒子,

我今日生了你。

你求我,我就把列國賜給你作產業,

把全地都歸屬於你。

你必用鐵杖擊打他們,

好像打碎陶器一樣粉碎他們。’”

10 現在,君王啊!你們要謹慎。

地上的審判官啊!你們應當聽勸告。

11 你們要以敬畏的態度事奉耶和華,

又應當存戰兢的心而歡呼。

12 你們要用嘴親吻子,

否則他一發怒,你們就在路上滅亡,

因為他的怒氣快要發作。

凡是投靠他的,都是有福的。

The Reign of the Lord's Anointed

(A)Why do (B)the nations rage[a]
    and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth set themselves,
    and the rulers take counsel together,
    against the Lord and against his (C)Anointed, saying,
“Let us (D)burst their bonds apart
    and cast away their cords from us.”

He who (E)sits in the heavens (F)laughs;
    the Lord holds them in derision.
Then he will speak to them in his (G)wrath,
    and terrify them in his fury, saying,
“As for me, I have (H)set my King
    on (I)Zion, my (J)holy hill.”

I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, (K)“You are my Son;
    today I have begotten you.
Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
    and (L)the ends of the earth your possession.
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.
