Berean Standard Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain?
1[Quare fremuerunt gentes, et populi meditati sunt inania?
2The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together, against the LORD and against His Anointed One:
2Astiterunt reges terræ, et principes convenerunt in unum adversus Dominum, et adversus christum ejus.
3“Let us break Their chains and cast away Their cords.”
3Dirumpamus vincula eorum, et projiciamus a nobis jugum ipsorum.
4The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord taunts them.
4Qui habitat in cælis irridebit eos, et Dominus subsannabit eos.
5Then He rebukes them in His anger, and terrifies them in His fury:
5Tunc loquetur ad eos in ira sua, et in furore suo conturbabit eos.
6“I have installed My King on Zion, upon My holy mountain.”
6Ego autem constitutus sum rex ab eo super Sion, montem sanctum ejus, prædicans præceptum ejus.
7I will proclaim the decree spoken to Me by the LORD: “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.
7Dominus dixit ad me: Filius meus es tu; ego hodie genui te.
8Ask Me, and I will make the nations Your inheritance, the ends of the earth Your possession.
8Postula a me, et dabo tibi gentes hæreditatem tuam, et possessionem tuam terminos terræ.
9You will break them with an iron scepter; You will shatter them like pottery.”
9Reges eos in virga ferrea, et tamquam vas figuli confringes eos.
10Therefore be wise, O kings; be admonished, O judges of the earth.
10Et nunc, reges, intelligite; erudimini, qui judicatis terram.
11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
11Servite Domino in timore, et exsultate ei cum tremore.
12Kiss the Son, lest He be angry and you perish in your rebellion, when His wrath ignites in an instant. Blessed are all who take refuge in Him.
12Apprehendite disciplinam, nequando irascatur Dominus, et pereatis de via justa.
