Psalm 2:7-12
Holman Christian Standard Bible
7 I will declare the Lord’s decree:
He said to Me, “You are My Son;[a]
today I have become Your[b] Father.(A)
8 Ask of Me,
and I will make the nations Your[c] inheritance
and the ends of the earth Your[d] possession.(B)
9 You will break[e] them with a rod of iron;
You[f] will shatter them like pottery.”[g](C)
10 So now, kings, be wise;
receive instruction, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with reverential awe
and rejoice with trembling.(D)
12 Pay homage to[h] the Son or He[i] will be angry
and you will perish in your rebellion,[j](E)
for His[k] anger may ignite at any moment.(F)
All those who take refuge in Him[l] are happy.(G)

the dew of Your youth belongs to You.[d](D)

“Forever, You are a priest
like Melchizedek.”(E)

He will crush kings on the day of His anger.(F)
