Psalm Two
Оглавление1 Why do the nations rage,And the peoples meditate a vain thing?2 The kings of the earth set themselves,And the rulers take counsel together,Against God, and against his anointed, saying,3 Let us break their bonds asunder,And cast away their cords from us.4 He that sitteth in the heavens will laugh:The Lord will have them in derision.5 Then will he speak unto them in his wrath,And vex them in his sore displeasure:6 Yet I have set my king Upon my holy hill of Zion.7 I will tell of the decree:God said unto me, Thou art my son;This day have I begotten thee.8 Ask of me, and I will give thee the nations for thine inheritance, And the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron;Thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.10 Now therefore be wise, O ye kings:Be instructed, ye judges of the earth.11 Serve God with fear,And rejoice with trembling.12 Kiss the son, lest he be angry, and ye perish in the way,For his wrath will soon be kindled.Blessed are all they that take refuge in him.
We are surrounded by conspiracy
Everywhere unknown creatures plot to kill
Check the Internet
Kings and would-be kings
Wannabe rulers and tribes
Hire fools
To demoralize the powerful
That’s us
As the Lord, whoever you are today
Has installed them on his holy mountain
Six Flags Magic Mountain?
Where are you now?
Who is this Lord?
Zeus again?
Yahweh? Is that still you?
You bestow on your believers
All the nations of the world
Is that your guarantee?
You will break the leaders
Who violate your laws you say?
How is Herr Hitler and the rest of the despots?
And Papa Joe? How is he?
Mao? Pol Pot?
Destroyed no doubt
With a hundred million of your most devout
The Sanctified
Who died extoling your Holy Name
