“But as for Me, I have [a]installed (A)My King
Upon Zion, (B)My holy mountain.”

He said to Me, ‘You are (C)My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
Ask of Me, and (D)I will surely give (E)the [c]nations as Your inheritance,
And the (F)ends of the earth as Your possession.
You shall [d](G)break them with a [e]rod of iron,
You shall (H)shatter them like a potter’s vessel.’”
