Psalm 2:7-9

New Century Version

⁷ Now I will tell you what the Lord has declared:
He said to me, “You are my son.
    Today I have become your father.
⁸ If you ask me, I will give you the nations;
    all the people on earth will be yours.
⁹ You will rule over them with an iron rod.
    You will break them into pieces like pottery.”
