Psalm 2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
New International Version
Here the NIV gives a false reading and a false footnote:
"Why do the nations "conspire", and the peoples plot in vain?" The footnote says that the Hebrew reads "conspire" while the word "rage" comes from the Greek Septuagint. This is not accurate. The Hebrew word itself means to "rage" and is the reading of the King James Version, the Revised Version of 1881, the American Standard Version of 1901, the New King James Version, Green's Modern KJV of 1998, Lamsa's translation of the Syriac Peshitta, the Douay, and the 2001 ESV (English Standard Version). The NASB says "in an uproar".
Later in this Psalm the NIV contadicts itself and rejects the Hebrew reading and follows the Greek Septuagint, but they don't mention that they did this. In Psalm 2:9 we read: "Thou shalt "break" them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel."
Here the reading of "Thou shalt "break" them" is found in the RV, ASV, NASB, NKJV, RSV, NRSV, ESV and the Holman Standard, however the NIV says: "You will "rule" them with an iron sceptre", but the footnote telling us this reading comes from the alleged LXX is missing. In 2002 the latest edition of the NIV, the TNIV, goes back to the reading of "you will "break" them" and then mentions in a footnote to see the LXX for the reading of "you will rule them".
