12:1 Zab 21:11Lwaki amawanga geegugunga

n’abantu ne bateganira obwereere okusala enkwe?

22:2 a Zab 48:4 b Zab 74:18, 23; Yk 1:41; Bik 4:25-26*Bakabaka ab’ensi bakuŋŋaanye,

n’abafuzi ne bateeseza wamu

ku Mukama

ne ku Kristo we, nga bagamba nti,

era tweyambulemu ekikoligo kyabwe.”

42:4 Zab 37:13; 59:8; Nge 1:26Naye Katonda oyo atuula mu ggulu,

abasekerera busekerezi, n’enkwe zaabwe ezitaliimu zimusesa.

52:5 Zab 21:9; 78:49-50N’alyoka abanenya ng’ajjudde obusungu,

n’abatiisa nnyo ng’aswakidde.

ku lusozi lwange Sayuuni olutukuvu.”

72:7 Bik 13:33*; Beb 1:5*Nzija kulangirira ekiragiro kya Mukama:

kubanga yaŋŋamba nti, “Ggwe oli Mwana wange,

olwa leero nfuuse kitaawo.

muyige okulabulwa mmwe abafuzi b’ensi.

112:11 a Beb 12:28 b Zab 119:119-120Muweereze Mukama nga mumutya,

era musanyuke n’okukankana.

122:12 a Yk 5:23 b Kub 6:16 c Zab 34:8; Bar 9:33Mwanirize Omwana, mumusembeze Mukama aleme okubasunguwalira

n’okubazikiriza nga muli mu kkubo lyammwe;

kubanga obusungu bwe bubuubuuka mangu.

Kyokka bonna abaddukira gy’ali balina omukisa.

New International Version

Psalms 2:1-12

Psalm 2

1Why do the nations conspire2:1 Hebrew; Septuagint rage

and the peoples plot in vain?

2The kings of the earth rise up

and the rulers band together

against the Lord and against his anointed, saying,

3“Let us break their chains

and throw off their shackles.”

4The One enthroned in heaven laughs;

the Lord scoffs at them.

5He rebukes them in his anger

and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,

6“I have installed my king

on Zion, my holy mountain.”

7I will proclaim the Lord’s decree:

He said to me, “You are my son;

today I have become your father.

8Ask me,

and I will make the nations your inheritance,

the ends of the earth your possession.

9You will break them with a rod of iron2:9 Or will rule them with an iron scepter (see Septuagint and Syriac);

you will dash them to pieces like pottery.”

10Therefore, you kings, be wise;

be warned, you rulers of the earth.

11Serve the Lord with fear

and celebrate his rule with trembling.

12Kiss his son, or he will be angry

and your way will lead to your destruction,

for his wrath can flare up in a moment.

Blessed are all who take refuge in him.
