This Psalm humbles me because I am nothing without God. He laughs at my foolishness when I try to do things on my own. But He also picks me up when I am weak. Take refuge in the LORD for He is good and will always provide.
Psalm 2
"Why do the nations conspire
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
“Let us break their chains
and throw off their shackles.”
and the peoples plot in vain?
The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,
“Let us break their chains
and throw off their shackles.”
The One enthroned in heaven laughs;
the Lord scoffs at them.
He rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
the Lord scoffs at them.
He rebukes them in his anger
and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
“I have installed my king
on Zion, my holy mountain. ”
on Zion, my holy mountain. ”
I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:
He said to me, “You are my son;
today I have become your father.
today I have become your father.
Ask me,
and I will make the nations your inheritance,
the ends of the earth your possession.
and I will make the nations your inheritance,
the ends of the earth your possession.
You will break them with a rod of iron;
you will dash them to pieces like pottery. ”
you will dash them to pieces like pottery. ”
Therefore, you kings, be wise;
be warned, you rulers of the earth.
be warned, you rulers of the earth.
Serve the Lord with fear
and celebrate his rule with trembling.
and celebrate his rule with trembling.
Kiss his son, or he will be angry
and your way will lead to your destruction,
for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him."
and your way will lead to your destruction,
for his wrath can flare up in a moment.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him."
