Today's bible teaching: Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling

Psalm 2

1: Psalm 2
1: Why do the nations conspire ^[1] and the peoples plot in vain?
2: The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the LORD and against his Anointed One. ^[2]
3: "Let us break their chains," they say, "and throw off their fetters."
4: The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
5: Then he rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
6: "I have installed my King ^[3] on Zion, my holy hill."
7: I will proclaim the decree of the LORD: He said to me, "You are my Son ^[4] ; today I have become your Father. ^[5]
8: Ask of me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.
9: You will rule them with an iron scepter ^[6] ; you will dash them to pieces like pottery."
10: Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth.
11: Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling.
12: Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way, for his wrath can flare up in a moment. Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
