6And I have anointed my king upon Zion, the hill of my holiness.

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

And I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance,

And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron;

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