PSAL. II. (Book 2)
VVHy rage the Heathen? and vain thingswhy do the people minde?Kings of the earth do set themselves,Line 2 and Princes are combindeTo plot against the Lord, and hisAnointed, saying thus,Let us asunder break their bandLine 3 and cast their cords from us.
He that in Heaven sits shall laugh:Line 4 the Lord shall scorn them all:Then shall he speak to them in wrath,Line 5 in r••••e he vex them shall.Yet notwithstanding I have himLine 6 to be my King appointed:And over Sion, my holy hill,I have him King anointed.
The sure decree I will declare:Line 7 the Lord hath said to me,Thou art mine onely Son, this dayI have begotten thee.Line 8
descriptionPage 3
Ask of me, and for heritageLine 8 the Heathen I'le make thine,And for possession I to theewill give earths utmost line.
Thou shalt, as with a weightie rodLine 9 of iron, break them all,And, as a potters sheard, thou shaltthem dash in pieces small.Now therefore, Kings, be wise, be taughtLine 10 ye Judges of the earth.Serve God in fear, and see that yeLine 11 joyn trembling with your mirth.
Kisse ye the Son, lest in his ireLine 12 ye perish from the way,If once his wrath begin to burn.Blest all that on him stay.
