4Hee that sitteth in the heauens shal laugh: the Lord shall haue them in derision. 5Then shall hee speake vnto them in his wrath, and vexe them in his sore displeasure. 6Yet haue I set my King vpon my holy hill of Sion. 7I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said vnto mee, Thou art my sonne, this day haue I begotten thee. 8Aske of me, and I shall giue thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the vttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.

Wesley's Notes for Psalms 2:6
2:6 Yet - Notwithstanding all their artifices and combinations. My king - Who ruleth in my stead, and according to my will, and for my glory. Zion - Over my church and people. Zion strictly taken, was an hill on the north part of Jerusalem, where there was a strong fort, called the city of David, but in a more large sense it is put for the city of Jerusalem, for the temple of Jerusalem, built upon the hill of Moriah, which was either a part of mount Sion, or adjoining to it; for the church of the Jews, and for the Christian church.
