1 Why
do the nations rage and the people plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth have set themselves and their rulers planned
together against the Lord and his anointed.
3 They say, Let us break these chains in pieces, and cast away the cords that bind
us.
4 He who sits in heaven will answer in his wrath, and distress them in his anger.
5 And blessed are those who put their trust in him.
6 So
I will tell of his decree, as the Lord has said to me, 7 Today you are my only son,
for I have begotten thee.
8 And I will give you all the nations.
9 And blessed are those who put their trust in him.
10 For I have set my king on my holy hill of Zion.
11 And blessed are those who put their trust in him.
12 We will praise you, Father God, we will praise you, gracious Son,
we will praise you, Holy One.
13 Bring your justice to the land, send your freedom again, let your guilt
die.
13 We will praise you, Father God, we will praise you, gracious Son,
we will praise you, Holy One.
14 Bring your justice to the land, send your freedom again, let your guilt
die.
13 We will praise you, Father God, we will praise you, gracious Son,
we will praise you, Holy One.
14 Bring your justice to the land, send your freedom again, let your guilt
die.
14 Bring your justice to the land, send your freedom again, let your guilt die.
