⁴ He who ^(A)sits in the heavens ^(B)laughs;
    the Lord holds them in derision.
⁵ Then he will speak to them in his ^(C)wrath,
    and terrify them in his fury, saying,
⁶ “As for me, I have ^(D)set my King
    on ^(E)Zion, my ^(F)holy hill.”

⁷ I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, ^(G)“You are my Son;
    today I have begotten you.
⁸ Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
    and ^(H)the ends of the earth your possession.
⁹ You shall ^(I)break^[a] them with ^(J)a rod of iron
    and dash them in pieces like ^(K)a potter's vessel.”
