Prince Far I - Psalm 2


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
False kings of the earth have set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against the anointed, saying,
Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away the cords from us.
Now he that sitteth in his heaven shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.
And then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
Yet have I set my kings upon the hills of Zion.
I will declare it unto thee, the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.
Ask of me and I shall give thee thy inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
Be wise therefore oh ye kings: inherit, ye judges of the earth.
Serve the LORD with fear, rejoice with trembling.
Psalm 2 - Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
Yet have I said unto my kings upon the holy hills of Zion,
I will now declare it, o Lord, Isaac said unto me, my son, thou art my son this day have I begotten thee.
Ask of me and I shall give thee thy inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession, ...the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession, yea.
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
False kings of the earth have set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against the anointed, saying,
Come, let us break their bands asunder, and cast away the cords from us.
Now he that sitteth in his heaven shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision
And vex them in his sore displeasure.
The Lord said unto me, Thou son, Thou art my son, for I have begotten thee now.
Ask of me and I shall give thee thy inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
Jah shalt break them with a rod of iron; Jah shalt dash them away like a potter's vessel, I will say.
Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away the cords from us.
He that sitteth in his heaven shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.
And then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
Yet have I said unto my kings upon the holy hill of Zion,
I will now declare it unto thee, the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee.
Ask of me and I shall give thee thy inheritance and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel, I will say.
Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel, I will tell you, yeah.
So be wise therefore ye, instructed judges of the earth, yeah.
Serve the LORD with fear, rejoice with trembling.
