PSALM 2 "The MESSIAH's TRIUMPH & KINGDOM"
recorded for your spiritual enrichment by vanderKOK
2:1 The Messiah's Triumph and Kingdom (Acts 4:23-31)
Why do the nations rage,
And the people plot a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying,
3 "Let us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us."
4 He who sits in the heavens shall laugh;
The LORD shall hold them in derision.
5 Then He shall speak to them in His wrath,
And distress them in His deep displeasure:
6 "Yet I have set My King
On My holy hill of Zion."
7 "I will declare the decree:
The LORD has said to Me,
'You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.
8 Ask of Me, and I will give You
The nations for Your inheritance,
And the ends of the earth for Your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron;
You shall dash them to pieces like a potter's vessel.'"
10 Now therefore, be wise, O kings

PSALM 3 "The LORD HELPS HIS TROUBLED PEOPLE" recorded for your spiritual enrichment by vanderKOK
3:1 The LORD Helps His Troubled People
A Psalm of David when he fled from Absalom his son.
LORD, how they have increased who trouble me!Many are they who rise up against me. 2 Many are they who say of me,"There is no help for him in God."Selah
3 But You, O LORD, are a shield for me,My glory and the One who lifts up my head. 4 I cried to the LORD with my voice,And He heard me from His holy hill.Selah
5 I lay down and slept;I awoke, for the LORD sustained me. 6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people Who have set themselves against me all around.
7 Arise, O LORD;Save me, O my God!For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;You have broken the teeth of the ungodly. 8 Salvation belongs to the LORD.Your blessing is upon Your people.
NKJV
