4 The one enthronedC in heaven laughs;

the Lord ridicules them.p

5 Then he speaks to them in his anger

and terrifies them in his wrath:q

6 “I have installed my king

on Zion, my holy mountain.”r

7 I will declare the Lord’s decree.

He said to me, “You are my Son;*

today I have become your Father.s

8 Ask of me,

and I will make the nations your inheritance

and the ends of the earth your possession.t

9 You will break them with an iron scepter;

you will shatter them like pottery.”u
