Psalms
Psalm 2 portrays nations and rulers conspiring “against the LORD and against his Anointed” Psalm 2:1–2. Their stated goal is to break what they view as restraints: “Let us burst their bonds apart” Psalm 2:3.
1Why do the nations rage, And the peoples plot a vain thing?
2The kings of the earth take a stand, And the rulers take counsel together, Against Yahweh, and against his anointed, saying,
3"Let us break their bonds apart, And cast away their cords from us."
