Psalms

2

1 神膏立的君王必審判列國列國為甚麼騷動?萬民為甚麼空謀妄想?
1Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
2世上的君王起來,首領聚在一起,敵對耶和華和他所膏立的,說:
2The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take counsel together, against Yahweh, and against his Anointed, saying,
3“我們來掙斷他們給我們的束縛,擺脫他們的繩索!”
3“Let’s break their bonds apart, and cast their cords from us.”
4那坐在天上的必發笑,主必譏笑他們。
4He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will have them in derision.
5那時,他必在烈怒中對他們講話,在震怒中使他們驚慌,說:
5Then he will speak to them in his anger, and terrify them in his wrath:
6“我已經在錫安我的聖山上,立了我的君王。”
6“Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”
7受膏者說:“我要宣告耶和華的諭旨:耶和華對我說:‘你是我的兒子,我今日生了你。
7I will tell of the decree. Yahweh said to me, “You are my son. Today I have become your father.
8你求我,我就把列國賜給你作產業,把全地都歸屬於你。
8Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.
9你必用鐵杖擊打他們,好像打碎陶器一樣粉碎他們。’”
9You shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10現在,君王啊!你們要謹慎。地上的審判官啊!你們應當聽勸告。
10Now therefore be wise, you kings. Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11你們要以敬畏的態度事奉耶和華,又應當存戰兢的心而歡呼。
11Serve Yahweh with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12你們要用嘴親吻子,否則他一發怒,你們就在路上滅亡,因為他的怒氣快要發作。凡是投靠他的,都是有福的。
12Give sincere homage to the Son , lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.
