Mga Awit 2

1Bakit ang mga bansa ay nangagugulo, at ang mga bayan ay nangagaakala ng walang kabuluhang bagay? 2Ang mga hari sa lupa ay nagsisihanda, at ang mga pinuno ay nagsasanggunian, Laban sa Panginoon at laban sa kaniyang pinahiran ng langis, na sinasabi: 3Lagutin natin ang kanilang tali, at ating iwaksi ang kanilang mga panali sa atin. 4Siyang nauupo sa kalangitan ay tatawa: ilalagay sila ng Panginoon sa kakutyaan. 5Kung magkagayo'y magsasalita siya sa kanila sa kaniyang poot, at babagabagin sila sa kaniyang malabis na sama ng loob: 6Gayon ma'y inilagay ko ang aking hari sa aking banal na bundok ng Sion. 7Aking sasaysayin ang tungkol sa pasiya: sinabi ng Panginoon sa akin, Ikaw ay aking anak; sa araw na ito ay ipinanganak kita. 8Humingi ka sa akin, at ibibigay ko sa iyo ang mga bansa na iyong pinakamana, at ang mga pinakadulong bahagi ng lupa ay iyong pinakaari. 9Sila'y iyong babaliin ng isang pamalong bakal; iyong dudurugin sila na parang isang sisidlan ng magpapalyok. 10Ngayon nga'y magpakapantas kayo, Oh kayong mga hari: mangatuto kayo, kayong mga hukom sa lupa. 11Kayo'y mangaglingkod sa Panginoon na may takot, at mangagalak na may panginginig. 12Hagkan ninyo ang anak, baka magalit siya, at kayo'y mangapahamak sa daan, sapagka't ang kaniyang poot ay madaling magalab. Mapapalad ang nanganganlong sa kaniya.

1Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing? 2The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take counsel together, against Yahweh, and against his Anointed, saying, 3“Let’s break their bonds apart, and cast their cords from us.” 4He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will have them in derision. 5Then he will speak to them in his anger, and terrify them in his wrath: 6“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.” 7I will tell of the decree. Yahweh said to me, “You are my son. Today I have become your father. 8Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession. 9You shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.” 10Now therefore be wise, you kings. Be instructed, you judges of the earth. 11Serve Yahweh with fear, and rejoice with trembling. 12Give sincere homage to the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish on the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.

1Waarom woeden de heidenen, en bedenken de volken ijdelheid? 2De koningen der aarde stellen zich op, en de vorsten beraadslagen te zamen tegen den HEERE, en tegen Zijn Gezalfde, zeggende: 3Laat ons hun banden verscheuren, en hun touwen van ons werpen. 4Die in den hemel woont, zal lachen; de HEERE zal hen bespotten. 5Dan zal Hij tot hen spreken in Zijn toorn, en in Zijn grimmigheid zal Hij hen verschrikken. 6Ik toch heb Mijn Koning gezalfd over Sion, den berg Mijner heiligheid. 7Ik zal van het besluit verhalen: de HEERE heeft tot Mij gezegd: Gij zijt Mijn Zoon, heden heb Ik U gegenereerd. 8Eis van Mij, en Ik zal de heidenen geven tot Uw erfdeel, en de einden der aarde tot Uw bezitting. 9Gij zult hen verpletteren met een ijzeren scepter; Gij zult hen in stukken slaan als een pottenbakkersvat. 10Nu dan, gij koningen, handelt verstandiglijk; laat u tuchtigen, gij rechters der aarde! 11Dient den HEERE met vreze, en verheugt u met beving. 12Kust den Zoon, opdat Hij niet toorne, en gij op den weg vergaat, wanneer Zijn toorn maar een weinig zou ontbranden. Welgelukzalig zijn allen, die op Hem betrouwen.
