2 The Lord will send forth the scepter of your virtue from Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies.
The LORD will send out the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule amongst your enemies.
3 It is with you from the beginning, in the day of your virtue, in the splendor of the saints. From conception, before the light-bearer, I begot you.
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 has sworn, and he will not repent: “You are a priest forever, according to the order of Melchizedek.”

6 He will judge between the nations; he will fill up ruination. He will shatter heads in the land of the many.

7 He will drink from the torrent on the way. Because of this, he will exalt the head.
