Psalmorum 2
1 [Quare fremuerunt gentes, et populi meditati sunt inania? Astiterunt reges terræ, et principes convenerunt in unum adversus Dominum, et adversus christum ejus.
Why? do they plot nations and peoples do they devise? vanity.
2 Dirumpamus vincula eorum, et projiciamus a nobis jugum ipsorum.
They take their stand - [the] kings of [the] earth and rulers they seat themselves together on Yahweh and on anointed his.
3 Qui habitat in cælis irridebit eos, et Dominus subsannabit eos.
Let us tear off fetters their and let us throw away from us ropes their.
4 Tunc loquetur ad eos in ira sua, et in furore suo conturbabit eos.
[the one who] sits In the heavens he laughs [the] Lord he mocks them.
5 Ego autem constitutus sum rex ab eo super Sion, montem sanctum ejus, prædicans præceptum ejus.
Then he speaks to them in anger his and in fury his he terrifies them.
6 Dominus dixit ad me: Filius meus es tu; ego hodie genui te.
And I I have installed king my on Zion [the] mountain of holiness my.
7 Postula a me, et dabo tibi gentes hæreditatem tuam, et possessionem tuam terminos terræ.
I will recount concerning [the] decree of Yahweh he said to me [are] son my you I this day I have begotten you.
8 Reges eos in virga ferrea, et tamquam vas figuli confringes eos.
Ask from me so let me make nations inheritance your and possession your [the] ends of [the] earth.
9 Et nunc, reges, intelligite; erudimini, qui judicatis terram.
You will break them with a rod of iron like a vessel of a potter you will smash them.
10 Servite Domino in timore, et exsultate ei cum tremore.
And therefore O kings act prudently let yourselves be instructed O rulers of [the] earth.
11 Apprehendite disciplinam, nequando irascatur Dominus, et pereatis de via justa.
Serve Yahweh with fear and rejoice with trembling.
12 Cum exarserit in brevi ira ejus, beati omnes qui confidunt in eo.]
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.
