Psalms 2

Salmos 2
|
Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish? | Por que se amotinam as nações, e os povos tramam em vão? |
The kings of the earth have taken their place, and the rulers are fixed in their purpose, against the Lord, and against the king of his selection, saying, | Os reis da terra se levantam, e os príncipes juntos conspiram contra o Senhor e contra o seu ungido, dizendo: |
Let their chains be broken, and their cords taken from off us. | Rompamos as suas ataduras, e sacudamos de nós as suas cordas. |
Then he whose seat is in the heavens will be laughing: the Lord will make sport of them. | Aquele que está sentado nos céus se rirá; o Senhor zombará deles. |
Then will his angry words come to their ears, and by his wrath they will be troubled: | Então lhes falará na sua ira, e no seu furor os confundirá, dizendo: |
But I have put my king on my holy hill of Zion. | Eu tenho estabelecido o meu Rei sobre Sião, meu santo monte. |
I will make clear the Lord's decision: he has said to me, You are my son, this day have I given you being. | Falarei do decreto do Senhor; ele me disse: Tu és meu Filho, hoje te gerei. |
Make your request to me, and I will give you the nations for your heritage, and the farthest limits of the earth will be under your hand. | Pede-me, e eu te darei as nações por herança, e as extremidades da terra por possessão. |
They will be ruled by you with a rod of iron; they will be broken like a potter's vessel. | Tu os quebrarás com uma vara de ferro; tu os despedaçarás como a um vaso de oleiro. |
So now be wise, you kings: take his teaching, you judges of the earth. | Agora, pois, ó reis, sede prudentes; deixai-vos instruir, juízes da terra. |
Give worship to the Lord with fear, kissing his feet and giving him honour, | Servi ao Senhor com temor, e regozijai-vos com tremor. |
For fear that he may be angry, causing destruction to come on you, because he is quickly moved to wrath. Happy are all those who put their faith in him. | Beijai o Filho, para que não se ire, e pereçais no caminho; porque em breve se inflamará a sua ira. Bem-aventurados todos aqueles que nele confiam. |
