< Psalms 110 >
1 A psalm of David. The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for you.”
A Psalm of David. The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
2 The Lord will expand your royal power from Zion; you will rule over your enemies.
The Lord shall send out a rod of power for thee out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
3 Your people willingly follow you on the day when your power is revealed on the holy mountains, renewed in strength every morning like dew at dawn.
With thee is dominion in the day of thy power, in the splendours of thy saints: I have begotten thee from the womb before the morning.
4 The Lord has made a vow he will not break: “You are a priest forever, following the order of Melchizedek.”
The Lord sware, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedec.
5 The Lord stands right beside you to support you; he will strike down kings in his anger.
The Lord at thy right hand has dashed in pieces kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He will execute judgment on the nations, filling their lands with corpses. He will strike down those who rule all over the earth.
He shall judge among the nations, he shall fill up [the number of] corpses, he shall crush the heads of many on the earth.
7 He will drink from streams beside the path. Therefore he will be victorious.
He shall drink of the brook in the way; therefore shall he lift up the head.
