Who gets the Last Laugh?
Psalm 2:1-12
1"Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? 2The kings of the earth take their stand and rulers gather together against the Lord and against the anointed one. 3"Let us break their chains," they say "and throw off their fetters." 4The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the lord scoffs at them. 5Then he rebukes them in anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying. 6"i have installed my kings on Zion, my holy hill." 7I will proclaim the decree of the lord; He said to me,” you are my son; today I have become your Father. 8ask of me and i will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession 9You will rule them with an iron scepter; 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 rejoice with trembling 12Kiss 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.
