Psalms 2
1 Why doe the heathen rage, and the people murmure in vaine?
Zakaj besnijo pogani in ljudstvo domišlja prazno stvar?
2 The Kings of the earth band themselues, and the princes are assembled together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
Kralji zemlje so se usmerili in vladarji se skupaj posvetujejo zoper Gospoda in zoper njegovega maziljenca, rekoč:
3 Let vs breake their bands, and cast their cordes from vs.
»Pretrgajmo njihove vezi in odvrzimo njihove vrvi od sebe.«
4 But he that dwelleth in the heauen, shall laugh: the Lord shall haue them in derision.
Tisti, ki sedi v nebesih, se bo smejal. Gospod jih bo imel v posmeh.
5 Then shall hee speake vnto them in his wrath, and vexe them in his sore displeasure, saying,
Potem jim bo govoril v svojem besu in jih nadlegoval v svojem bridkem nezadovoljstvu.
6 Euen I haue set my King vpon Zion mine holy mountaine.
»Vendarle sem jaz postavil svojega kralja na svoji sveti gori Sion.«
7 I will declare the decree: that is, the Lord hath said vnto me, Thou art my Sonne: this day haue I begotten thee.
Oznanil bom odlok. Gospod mi je rekel: »Ti si moj Sin. Ta dan sem te rodil.
8 Aske of me, and I shall giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the endes of the earth for thy possession.
Zahtevaj od mene in dal ti bom pogane za tvojo dediščino in najbolj oddaljene kraje zemlje za tvojo posest.
9 Thou shalt krush them with a scepter of yron, and breake them in pieces like a potters vessell.
Zdrobil jih boš z železno palico, raztreščil jih boš na koščke kakor lončarjevo posodo.«
10 Be wise nowe therefore, ye Kings: be learned ye Iudges of the earth.
Zatorej bodite sedaj modri, oh vi kralji. Dajte se poučiti, vi sodniki zemlje.
11 Serue the Lord in feare, and reioyce in trembling.
Gospodu služite s strahom in veselite se s trepetanjem.
12 Kisse the sonne, least he be angry, and ye perish in the way, when his wrath shall suddenly burne. blessed are all that trust in him.
Poljubite Sina, da ne bi bil jezen in ne izginete iz poti, ko je njegov bes le malo razvnet. Blagoslovljeni so vsi, ki svoje upanje položijo vanj.
