< Psalms 110 >
1 A Psalm. Of David. The Lord said to my lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put all those who are against you under your feet.
A Psalm of David. The LORD said to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”
2 The Lord will send out the rod of your strength from Zion; be king over your haters.
The LORD extends Your mighty scepter from Zion: “Rule in the midst of Your enemies.”
3 Your people give themselves gladly in the day of your power; like the dew of the morning on the holy mountains is the army of your young men.
Your people shall be willing on Your day of battle. Arrayed in holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn, to You belongs the dew of Your youth.
4 The Lord has made an oath, and will not take it back. You are a priest for ever, after the order of Melchizedek.
The LORD has sworn and will not change His mind: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”
5 In the day of his wrath kings will be wounded by the Lord at your right hand.
The Lord is at Your right hand; He will crush kings in the day of His wrath.
6 He will be judge among the nations, the valleys will be full of dead bodies; the head over a great country will be wounded by him.
He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead; He will crush the leaders far and wide.
7 He will take of the stream by the way; so his head will be lifted up.
He will drink from the brook by the road; therefore He will lift up His head.
