Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1[Quare fremuerunt gentes, et populi meditati sunt inania?
1Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2Astiterunt reges terræ, et principes convenerunt in unum adversus Dominum, et adversus christum ejus.
2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD , and against his anointed, saying ,
3Dirumpamus vincula eorum, et projiciamus a nobis jugum ipsorum.
3Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4Qui habitat in cælis irridebit eos, et Dominus subsannabit eos.
4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
5Tunc loquetur ad eos in ira sua, et in furore suo conturbabit eos.
5Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6Ego autem constitutus sum rex ab eo super Sion, montem sanctum ejus, prædicans præceptum ejus.
6Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7Dominus dixit ad me: Filius meus es tu; ego hodie genui te.
7I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
8Postula a me, et dabo tibi gentes hæreditatem tuam, et possessionem tuam terminos terræ.
8Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9Reges eos in virga ferrea, et tamquam vas figuli confringes eos.
9Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
10Et nunc, reges, intelligite; erudimini, qui judicatis terram.
10Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11Servite Domino in timore, et exsultate ei cum tremore.
11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12Apprehendite disciplinam, nequando irascatur Dominus, et pereatis de via justa.
12Kiss 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.
13Cum exarserit in brevi ira ejus, beati omnes qui confidunt in eo.]
