Psalms 110

1 Psalm of David. Jehovah said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand, until I put thine enemies [as] footstool of thy feet.

A psalm of David. Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 Jehovah shall send the sceptre of thy might out of Zion: rule in the midst of thine enemies.

Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion; rule among your enemies.

3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in holy splendour: from the womb of the morning [shall come] to thee the dew of thy youth.

Your people will follow you in holy garments of their own free will on the day of your power; from the womb of the dawn your youth will be to you like the dew.

4 Jehovah hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek.

Yahweh has sworn, and will not change: “You are a priest forever, after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5 The Lord at thy right hand will smite through kings in the day of his anger.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6 He shall judge among the nations; he shall fill [all places] with dead bodies; he shall smite through the head over a great country.

He will judge the nations; he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies; he will kill the leaders in many countries.

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

He will drink of the brook along the road, and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
