Psalms 2

1 Why? do they plot nations and peoples do they devise? vanity.

【默西亞必勝】萬邦為什麼囂張，眾民為什麼妄想？

2 They take their stand - [the] kings of [the] earth and rulers they seat themselves together on Yahweh and on anointed his.

世上列民群集一堂，諸侯畢至聚首相商，反抗上主，反抗他的受傅者：

3 Let us tear off fetters their and let us throw away from us ropes their.

來！我們掙斷他們的綑綁，我們擺脫他們的繩韁！

4 [the one who] sits In the heavens he laughs [the] Lord he mocks them.

坐於天上者在冷笑，我主對他們在熱嘲。

5 Then he speaks to them in anger his and in fury his he terrifies them.

在震怒中對他們發言，在氣焰中對他們喝道：

6 And I I have installed king my on Zion [the] mountain of holiness my.

我已祝聖我的君王，在熙雍我的聖山上。

7 I will recount concerning [the] decree of Yahweh he said to me [are] son my you I this day I have begotten you.

我要傳報上主的聖旨：上主對我說：你是我的兒子，我今日生了你。

8 Ask from me so let me make nations inheritance your and possession your [the] ends of [the] earth.

你向我請求，我必將萬民賜你作產業，我必將八極賜你作領地。

9 You will break them with a rod of iron like a vessel of a potter you will smash them.

你必以鐵杖將他們粉碎，就如打破陶匠的瓦器。

10 And therefore O kings act prudently let yourselves be instructed O rulers of [the] earth.

眾王！你們現在應當自覺，大地掌權者！你們應受教：

11 Serve Yahweh with fear and rejoice with trembling.

應以敬愛之情事奉上主，戰戰兢兢向祂跪拜叩首；

12 Kiss [the] son lest he should be angry - and you may perish way if it burns like a little anger his how blessed! [are] all [those who] seek refuge in him.

以免祂發怒將你們滅於中途，因為祂的怒火發怒非常快速。凡一切投奔祂的人真是有福。
