Psalms 2:8-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
8Ask it of Me, and I will certainly give the nations as Your inheritance, And the ends of the earth as Your possession. 9You shall break them with a rod of iron, You shall shatter them like earthenware.’?' 10Now then, you kings, use insight; Let yourselves be instructed, you judges of the earth. 11Serve the Lord with reverence And rejoice with trembling. 12 Kiss the Son, that He not be angry and you perish on the way, For His wrath may be kindled quickly. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!King James Version

Chapter 2
8Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance and the ends of the earth your possession.
9You will break them with an iron scepter; you will shatter them like pottery."
10So now, kings, be wise; receive instruction, you judges of the earth.
11Serve the Lord with reverential awe and rejoice with trembling.
12Pay homage to the Son or he will be angry and you will perish in your rebellion, for his anger may ignite at any moment. All who take refuge in him are happy.
New Living Translation
Chapter 2
8Only ask, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance, the whole earth as your possession. 9You will break them with an iron rod and smash them like clay pots.’'
10Now then, you kings, act wisely! Be warned, you rulers of the earth!
11Serve the Lord with reverent fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12Submit to God’s royal son, or he will become angry, and you will be destroyed in the midst of all your activities — for his anger flares up in an instant. But what joy for all who take refuge in him!
