1. Why do the gentiles rage, And the peoples meditate emptiness?
2. The sovereigns of the earth take their stand, And the rulers take counsel together, Against יהוה and against His Messiah, and say,
3. “Let us tear apart Their bonds, And throw away Their ropes from us.”
4. He who is sitting in the heavens laughs, יהוה mocks at them.
5. Then He speaks to them in His wrath, And troubles them in His rage, saying,
6. “But I, I have set My Sovereign on Tsiyon, My set-apart mountain.”
