< Psalms 2 >

1 Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?
Tipongah Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk loe palungphui o moe, kaminawk loe avang ai hmuen to poek o?
2 The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together, against the LORD and against His Anointed One:
Long siangpahrangnawk hoi ukkungnawk loe nawnto amkhueng o moe, Angraeng hoi anih mah situi bawh tangcae kami ih lok to aek o,
3 “Let us break Their chains and cast away Their cords.”
nihcae ih qui to taprawt pae pat si loe, nihcae ih sumqui doeh vaa pae o ving si, tiah a thuih o.
4 The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord taunts them.
Vannawk ah anghnu kami loe pahnui tih: Angraeng mah nihcae to pahnuithui tih.
5 Then He rebukes them in His anger, and terrifies them in His fury:
To naah anih mah nihcae to palungphuihaih hoiah thuitaek ueloe, kana parai koeh koi kaom ai anghmang thok khosakhaih to phasak tih.
6 “I have installed My King on Zion, upon My holy mountain.”
Toe kaimah ih kaciim Zion mae nuiah, kaimah ih siangpahrang to kang hnutsak boeh, tiah anih mah thuih.
7 I will proclaim the decree spoken to Me by the LORD: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.
Angraeng mah ang thuih ih lok to ka thuih han; nang loe ka Capa ni; nang loe vaihniah kang tapen boeh, tiah ang naa.
8 Ask Me, and I will make the nations Your inheritance, the ends of the earth Your possession.
Na hniah, to tih nahaeloe Sithaw panoek ai kaminawk to nang han qawk ah kang paek han, nihcae loe longboeng khoek to nang ih qawk ah om o tih.
9 You will break them with an iron scepter; You will shatter them like pottery.”
Nihcae to sumboeng hoiah na uk ueloe, long laom pakhoih phaeng baktih toengah, nihcae to na vaa phaeng tih.
10 Therefore be wise, O kings; be admonished, O judges of the earth.
To pongah nangcae siangpahrangnawk, Palungha oh loe, long ukkungnawk thuitaekhaih lok to tahngai oh.
11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
Zithaih palungthin hoiah Angraeng ih tok to sah oh loe, tasoeh takuenhaih hoiah anghoe oh.
12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish in your rebellion, when His wrath ignites in an instant. Blessed are all who take refuge in Him.
Capa to mok oh, to tih ai nahaeloe Anih palungphui ueloe, nang loe loklam hoiah nang hmaa ving tih, anih loe palungphui cadoeh akra mak ai. Anih nuiah amha kaminawk boih loe tahamhoih o.
