Psalms 2:6-12

6“As for me, I have aset my King
on bZion, my choly hill.”
7 I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, d“You are my Son;
today I have begotten you.
8Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and ethe ends of the earth your possession.
9You shall fbreak
Revocalization yields (compare Septuagint)  You shall rule
them with ha rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like ia potter’s vessel.”
10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 jServe the Lord with kfear,
and lrejoice with mtrembling.
12 nKiss othe Son,
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his pwrath is quickly kindled.
qBlessed are all who take refuge in him.

John 19:19-22

19Pilate asalso wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” 20Many of the Jews read this inscription, for atthe place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Aramaic, in Latin, and in Greek. 21So the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, “Do not write, ‘The King of the Jews,’ but rather, ‘This man said, I am King of the Jews.’” 22Pilate answered, auWhat I have written I have written.”
