PSALM 2

kingdom that is on earth and in heaven.

PSALM 2
7 I will tell of the decree: The Lord 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.”

God will one day send His Son to establish His

rule.

PSALM 2

Leaders of nations show great
