New Testament

Psalms 2:4-12 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

4. The One enthroned in heaven laughs;the Lord ridicules them.

5. Then He speaks to them in His angerand terrifies them in His wrath:

6. “I have consecrated My King on Zion, My holy mountain.”

7. I will declare the Lord’s decree:He said to Me, “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.

8. Ask of Me,and I will make the nations Your inheritanceand the ends of the earth Your possession.

9. You will break them with a rod of iron;You will shatter them like pottery.”

10. So now, kings, be wise;receive instruction, you judges of the earth.

11. Serve the Lord with reverential aweand rejoice with trembling.

12. Pay homage to the Son or He will be angryand you will perish in your rebellion, for His anger may ignite at any moment. All those who take refuge in Him are happy.
