Psalms 110

1 A Psalm of David. The Lord said to my Lord, Sit you on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.

A Psalm by David. The LORD says to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool for your feet.”

2 The Lord shall send out a rod of power for you out of Sion: rule you in the midst of your enemies.

The LORD will send out the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule amongst your enemies.

3 With you is dominion in the day of your power, in the splendours of your saints: I have begotten you from the womb before the morning.

Your people offer themselves willingly in the day of your power, in holy array. Out of the womb of the morning, you have the dew of your youth.

4 The Lord sware, and will not repent, You are a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedec.

The LORD has sworn, and will not change his mind: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

5 The Lord at your right hand has dashed in pieces kings in the day of his wrath.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will crush kings in the day of his wrath.

6 He shall judge amongst the nations, he shall fill up [the number of] corpses, he shall crush the heads of many on the earth.

He will judge amongst the nations. He will heap up dead bodies. He will crush the ruler of the whole earth.

7 He shall drink of the brook in the way; therefore shall he lift up the head.

He will drink of the brook on the way; therefore he will lift up his head.
