7 I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:

He said to me, “You are my son;

today I have become your father.

8 Ask me,

and I will make the nations your inheritance,

the ends of the earth your possession.

9 You will break them with a rod of iron;

you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”

7 I will declare the decree:

The Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son;

This day have I begotten thee.

8 Ask of me,

And I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,

And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron;

Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.

7 The king proclaims the Lord’s decree:

“The Lord said to me, ‘You are my son.

Today I have become your Father.

8 Only ask, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance,

the whole earth as your possession.

9 You will break them with an iron rod

and smash them like clay pots.’ ”

7 “I will declare the decree:

The Lord has said to Me,

‘You are My Son,

Today I have begotten You.

8 Ask of Me, and I will give You

The nations for Your inheritance,

And the ends of the earth for Your possession.

9 You shall break them with a rod of iron;

You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ ”

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.”

7 I will tell of the decree:

Jehovah said unto me, Thou art my son;

This day have I begotten thee.

8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance,

And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron;

Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.

7 I will declare the decree: Jehovah hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; I this day have begotten thee. 8 Ask of me, and I will give thee nations for an inheritance, and for thy possession the ends of the earth: 9 Thou shalt break them with a sceptre of iron, as a potter’s vessel thou shalt dash them in pieces.

7 I will announce the Lord’s decree. 

He said to me: 

“You are my Son. 

Today I have become your Father. 

8 Ask me, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance 

and the ends of the earth as your own possession. 

9 You will break them with an iron scepter. 

You will smash them to pieces like pottery.” 

7 I will declare the Lord’s decree:

He said to Me, “You are My Son;

today I have become Your Father.

8 Ask of Me,

and I will make the nations Your inheritance

and the ends of the earth Your possession.

9 You will break them with a rod of iron;

You will shatter them like pottery.”

7 I will tell of the decree of the Lord:

He said to me, “You are my son;

today I have begotten you.

8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,

and the ends of the earth your possession.

9 You shall break them with a rod of iron,

and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

7 I will tell the decree;

Yahweh said to me:

“You are my son;

today I have begotten you.

8 Ask from me and I will make the nations your heritage,

and your possession the ends of the earth.

9 You will break them with an iron rod.

Like a potter’s vessel you will shatter them.”

7 I will announce what the Lord has promised.

He said to me, “You are my son.

Today I have become your father.

8 Ask me, and I will give the nations to you.

All nations on earth will belong to you.

9 You will rule them with an iron rod.

You will break them to pieces like clay pots.”

7 “I will surely tell of the decree of the Lord:

He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,

Today I have begotten You.

8 ‘Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance,

And the very ends of the earth as Your possession.

9 ‘You shall break them with a rod of iron,

You shall shatter them like earthenware.’ ”
