and the peoples plot in vain?l
2 The kings of the earth take their stand,m
and the rulers conspire together
against the Lord and his Anointed One:B,n
3 “Let’s tear off their chains
and throw their ropes off of us.”o
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
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
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
receive instruction, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with reverential awe
and rejoice with trembling.v
12 Pay homage toE the Son or he will be angry
and you will perish in your rebellion,F,w
for his anger may ignite at any moment.x
All who take refuge in him are happy.y

About Christian Standard BibleThe Christian Standard Bible (CSB) is a highly trustworthy, faithful translation that is proven to be the optimal blend of accuracy and readability. It’s as literal to the original as possible without sacrificing clarity. The CSB is poised to become the translation that pastors rely on and Bible readers turn to again and again to read and to share with others. The CSB is an original translation: more than 100 scholars from 17 denominations translated directly from the best available Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic source texts into English. Its source texts are the standard used by scholars and seminaries today. The CSB is trustworthy: the conservative, evangelical scholars of the CSB affirm the authority of Scripture as the inerrant Word of God and seek the highest level of faithfulness to the original and accuracy in their translation. These scholars and LifeWay, the non-profit ministry that stewards the CSB, also champion the Bible against cultural trends that would compromise its truths. The CSB is clear: it is as literal a translation of the ancient source texts as possible, but, in the many places throughout Scripture where a word-for-word rendering might obscure the meaning for a modern audience, it uses a more dynamic translation. In all cases, the intent is to convey the original meaning of God’s Word as faithfully and as clearly as possible. |
