Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
Acts 4:25

¹The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take ²counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
¹ Acts 4:26
² Matt 26:3, John 11:47, Acts 4:27

3

Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

4

He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.

5

Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.

6

Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, ¹Thou art my ²Son; this day have I begotten thee.

Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine ¹inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.

Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

11

Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

12

Kiss 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.
