Psalm 2:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁷ I will tell of the decree of the Lord:
He said to me, ‘You are my son;
    today I have begotten you.
⁸ Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
    and the ends of the earth your possession.
⁹ You shall break them with a rod of iron,
    and dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.’
