Psalms 2:1-3

The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed

1 ^aWhy do ^bthe nations rage ^{▼▼Or nations noisily assemble}
and the peoples plot in vain?

and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and against his ^dAnointed, saying,
3 “Let us ^eburst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”

that ^gdo not know you,

that ^hdo not call upon your name!

12 Let the nations stir themselves up
and come up to ^kthe Valley of Jehoshaphat;
