Psalms 2

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

外邦為甚麼爭鬧？ 萬民為甚麼謀算虛妄的事？

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

世上的君王一齊起來， 臣宰一同商議， 要敵擋耶和華並他的受膏者，

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

說：我們要掙開他們的捆綁， 脫去他們的繩索。

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

那坐在天上的必發笑； 主必嗤笑他們。

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

那時，他要在怒中責備他們， 在烈怒中驚嚇他們，

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

說：我已經立我的君 在錫安－我的聖山上了。

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

受膏者說：我要傳聖旨。 耶和華曾對我說：你是我的兒子， 我今日生你。

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

你求我，我就將列國賜你為基業， 將地極賜你為田產。

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

你必用鐵杖打破他們； 你必將他們如同窯匠的瓦器摔碎。

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

現在，你們君王應當省悟！ 你們世上的審判官該受管教！

11 Serve Yahweh with fear and rejoice with trembling.

當存畏懼事奉耶和華， 又當存戰兢而快樂。

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.

當以嘴親子，恐怕他發怒， 你們便在道中滅亡， 因為他的怒氣快要發作。 凡投靠他的，都是有福的。
