< Psalms 2 >

1 Why have nations assembled tumultuously? And peoples meditate vanity?
Ba ham lae namtom rhoek khopo uh tih a poeyoek la namtu te a taeng uh?
2 Kings of the earth station themselves, and princes have been united together, against YHWH, and against His Messiah:
Diklai manghai rhoek boeica rhoek loh thikat la tingtun uh, BOEIPA nehBOEIPAamah kah Messiah te a pai thil uh tih,
3 “Let us draw off Their cords, And cast Their thick bands from us.”
“Amih kah kuelrhui te bawt uh sih lamtah, mamih pum kah rhuivaeh voeih pa sih,” a ti uh.
4 He who is sitting in the heavens laughs, The Lord mocks at them.
Vaan ah aka ngol Boeipa loh amih te a nueih thil tih, a tamdaeng,
5 Then He speaks to them in His anger, and in His wrath He troubles them:
Te vaengah A thintoek neh amih te a voek tih a thinsa neh amih te a let sak.
6 “And I have anointed My King, On Zion—My holy hill.”
Te dongah kai loh kamah kah manghai te kamah kah Zion tlang cim ah ka hol coeng,” a ti.
7 I declare concerning a statute: YHWH said to me, “You [are] My Son, today I have brought You forth.
BOEIPA loh kai taengah, “Nang tah kamah ca ni, Tihnin ah kai loh nang kan sak,” a ti oltlueh te ka doek ni.
8 Ask of Me and I give nations [as] Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth [for] Your possession.
Kai taengah ham bih lamtah namtom boeih te na rho la kam paek vetih na khohut loh kho bawt kho le a pha ni.
9 You rule them with a scepter of iron, You crush them as a vessel of a potter.”
Amih te thi caitueng neh na talh vetih, amsai kah hnopai bangla amih te na phop ni.
10 And now, O kings, act wisely, Be instructed, O judges of earth,
Te dongah manghai rhoek lungming la om uh saeh. Diklai laitloek rhoek toel uh laeh.
11 Serve YHWH with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
BOEIPA te hinyahnah neh, omngaih neh, thuennah neh thothueng uh.
12 Kiss the Chosen One [[or Son]], lest He is angry, And you perish [from] the way, When His anger burns but a little, O the blessedness of all trusting in Him!
A capa te mok pah, a thintoek ve, Mikpalap kah a thintoek loh n'dom vetih longpueng ah na milh ve. Anih dongah aka kuep boeih tah a yoethen.
