haue them in derision.
5 Then shall he speake vnto them in his wrath, and confound them in the heate of his displeasure.
6 He shall say: Euen I haue annoynted, and set my King vpon Sion mine holy mountaine.
7 I will declare the decree thereof. The Lord said vnto me, Thou art my Sonne: this day haue I begotten thee.
8 Aske of me, and I shall giue thee the nations for thine in∣heritance, and the ends of the earth for thy possession.
9 Thou shalt crush them with a scepter of iron, and breake them in pieces like a potters vessell.
10 Be wise therefore now ye Kings: be learned ye Iudges of the earth.
11 Serue the Lord in feare, and reioyce with trembling.
12 Kisse the Sonne, least he be angrie, and ye perish in the way, when his wrath shall burne neuer so little. Blessed are all that trust in him.
ANALYS. PSALM. 2.
THis Psalme containes an exhortation to all estates and degrees of men both Prince and people, to forbeare plotting and attempting against the kingdome of Christ, and consequently to doe worship and homage vnto him. For what Dauid speakes here of himselfe, wee must take it spoken of him as he is a type and figure of Christ. And it is true that the tenne tribes of Israel with their Princes and Gouernours, that the Philistims also, the Ammonites and others warred against Dauid with intention to depriue him of the imperiall crowne and scepter, which he had receiued from the Lord: so is it true likewise that the Princes and people of the Iewes, the high Priests, Scribes and Pharisies together with Herod, Pilate, and their associates, conspired the ruine of Christ and his kingdome. Which conspiracie of theirs was vnder a type shadowed foorth and signified by the combination entred against Dauid and his temporall soueraigntie.
