Psalms 2

quare turbabuntur gentes et tribus meditabuntur inania

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

consurgent reges terrae et principes tractabunt pariter adversum Dominum et adversum christum eius

The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,

disrumpamus vincula eorum et proiciamus a nobis laqueos eorum

Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

habitator caeli ridebit Dominus subsannabit eos

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

tunc loquetur ad eos in ira sua et in furore suo conturbabit eos

Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

ego autem orditus sum regem meum super Sion montem sanctum suum adnuntiabo Dei praeceptum

Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

Dominus dixit ad me filius meus es tu ego hodie genui te

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.

postula a me et dabo tibi gentes hereditatem tuam et possessionem tuam terminos terrae

Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

pasces eos in virga ferrea ut vas figuli conteres eos

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

nunc ergo reges intellegite erudimini iudices terrae

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

servite Domino in timore et exultate in tremore

Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

adorate pure ne forte irascatur et pereatis de via cum exarserit post paululum furor eius beati omnes qui sperant in eum

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.
