Psalms 2:4-9

4He who 1sits in the heavens 2laughs, The Lord 3scoffs at them.5Then He will speak to them in His 4anger And 5terrify them in His fury, saying,6“But as for Me, I have 6installed 7My King Upon Zion, 8My holy mountain.”

7“I will surely tell of the 9decree of the Lord: He said to Me, ‘You are 10My Son, Today I have begotten You.8Ask of Me, and 11I will surely give 12the 13nations as Your inheritance, And the very 14ends of the earth as Your possession.9You shall 1516break them with a 17rod of iron, You shall 18shatter them like 19earthenware.’”
