神所拣选的君王
列国为什么争闹? 万民为什么图谋虚妄?Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2世上的君王都站稳, 臣宰一同算计, 要对抗耶和华, 对抗他的受膏者:The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3“我们要挣脱他们的捆绑, 脱去他们的绳索。”Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4那坐在天上的必讥笑, 主必嗤笑他们。He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.
5那时,他要在怒中责备他们, 在烈怒中惊吓他们:Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6“我已经在锡安-我的圣山 膏立了我的君王。”Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7我要传耶和华的圣旨, 他对我说:“你是我的儿子, 我今日生了你。I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
8你求我,我就将列国赐你为基业, 将地极赐你为田产。Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9你必用铁杖打破他们, 把他们如同陶匠的瓦器摔碎。”Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
10现在,君王啊,应当谨慎! 世上的审判官哪,要听劝戒!Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11当存敬畏的心事奉耶和华, 又当战兢而快乐。Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12当亲吻儿子,免得他发怒, 你们就在半途中灭亡, 因为他的怒气快要发作。 凡投靠他的,都是有福的。Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
