< תהילים 2 >
לָמָּה רָגְשׁוּ גוֹיִם וּלְאֻמִּים יֶהְגּוּ־רִֽיק׃ | 1 |
Why do the nations rage, and the peoples imagine a vain thing?
יִתְיַצְּבוּ ׀ מַלְכֵי־אֶרֶץ וְרוֹזְנִים נֽוֹסְדוּ־יָחַד עַל־יְהֹוָה וְעַל־מְשִׁיחֽוֹ׃ | 2 |
The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, [saying],
נְֽנַתְּקָה אֶת־מֽוֹסְרוֹתֵימוֹ וְנַשְׁלִיכָה מִמֶּנּוּ עֲבֹתֵֽימוֹ׃ | 3 |
Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
יוֹשֵׁב בַּשָּׁמַיִם יִשְׂחָק אֲדֹנָי יִלְעַג־לָֽמוֹ׃ | 4 |
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
אָז יְדַבֵּר אֵלֵימוֹ בְאַפּוֹ וּֽבַחֲרוֹנוֹ יְבַהֲלֵֽמוֹ׃ | 5 |
Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure:
וַאֲנִי נָסַכְתִּי מַלְכִּי עַל־צִיּוֹן הַר־קׇדְשִֽׁי׃ | 6 |
Yet I have set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
אֲסַפְּרָה אֶֽל ־ חֹק יְֽהֹוָה אָמַר אֵלַי בְּנִי אַתָּה אֲנִי הַיּוֹם יְלִדְתִּֽיךָ׃ | 7 |
I will tell of the decree: the LORD said unto me, Thou art my son; this day have I begotten thee.
שְׁאַל מִמֶּנִּי וְאֶתְּנָה גוֹיִם נַחֲלָתֶךָ וַאֲחֻזָּתְךָ אַפְסֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃ | 8 |
Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
תְּרֹעֵם בְּשֵׁבֶט בַּרְזֶל כִּכְלִי יוֹצֵר תְּנַפְּצֵֽם׃ | 9 |
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
וְעַתָּה מְלָכִים הַשְׂכִּילוּ הִוָּסְרוּ שֹׁפְטֵי אָֽרֶץ׃ | 10 |
Now therefore be wise, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
עִבְדוּ אֶת־יְהֹוָה בְּיִרְאָה וְגִילוּ בִּרְעָדָֽה׃ | 11 |
Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
נַשְּׁקוּ־בַר פֶּן־יֶאֱנַף ׀ וְתֹאבְדוּ דֶרֶךְ כִּֽי־יִבְעַר כִּמְעַט אַפּוֹ אַשְׁרֵי כׇּל־חוֹסֵי בֽוֹ׃ | 12 |
Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
