Description of Illumination: The second full chapter of Psalms from the 1900 King James Bible,  comes in three color combinations: blue/pale blue, red/pink, and tan/beige, originally printed in an Anglican Psalter

Why do the heathen so furiously rage together: & why do the people imagine a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth stand up, and the rulers take counsel together; against the Lord,  and against his Anointed. 3 Let us break their bonds asunder: & cast away their cords from us. 4 He that dwelleth in heaven shall laugh them to scorn: the Lord shall have them in derision. 5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath: and vex them in his sore displeasure. 6 Yet have I set my King: upon my holy hill of Zion. 7 I will preach the law, whereof the Lord hath said unto me: Thou are my Son, this day have I begotten thee. 8 Desire of me, & I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance: and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession. 9 Thou shalt bruise them with a rod of iron: and break them in pieces like a potter's vessel. 10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be learned, ye that are judges of the earth. 11 Serve the Lord in fear: and rejoice unto him with reverence. 12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and so ye perish from the right way: if his wrath be kindled, (yea, but a little,) blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Psalms 1

Description of Illumination: from a 1904 Psalter, Church of England, King James Bible, this is the original King James Text from the 1900s, the Chapter comes in red/pink, blue/pale blue or in tan/beige:

"Blessed is the man that hath not walked in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stood in the way of sinners: and hath not sat in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord: and in his law will he exercise himself day and night. 3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the water-side: that will bring forth his fruit in due season. 4 His leaf also shall not wither: and look, whatsoever he doeth, it shall prosper. 5 As for the ungodly, it is not so with them: but they are like the chaff, which the wind scattereth away from the face of the earth. 6 Therefore the ungodly shall not be able to stand in the judgment: neither the sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 7 But the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: and the way of the ungodly shall perish."

Here is the cross reference for Psalm 1:1 from Jeremiah 15:17 (NIV). It has a white background.

Above is the cross reference for Psalm 1: 3-4, when the King James was updated, verse 4 was combined into verse 3 over time. However in the 1900 version there are 7 verses in the first chapter of Psalms. The original 4th verse is quite lovely. In either case the verse from Ezekiel is the cross reference for both.
