psalm 2

Read Psalm 2 this morning. Interesting difference between the Tanakh (Hebrew-English) and the King James (Christian) versions of verse 7. Tanakh: "You are My son." King James: "Thou art my Son." Note the difference in capitalization. The Tanakh emphasizes the one speaking, God. The KJB emphasizes the one spoken to, Son. Subtle but not so subtle differences in translation.
