< 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. A declaration of YHWH to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand, Until I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
2 The Lord will expand your royal power from Zion; you will rule over your enemies.
YHWH sends the rod of Your strength from Zion, Rule in the midst of Your 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.
Your people [are] free-will gifts in the day of Your strength, in the honors of holiness, From the womb, from the morning, You have the dew of Your youth.
4 The Lord has made a vow he will not break: “You are a priest forever, following the order of Melchizedek.”
YHWH has sworn, and does not relent, “You [are] a priest for all time, According to the order of Melchizedek.”
5 The Lord stands right beside you to support you; he will strike down kings in his anger.
The Lord on Your right hand struck kings In the day of His anger.
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 judges among the nations, He has completed the carcasses, Has struck the head over the mighty earth.
7 He will drink from streams beside the path. Therefore he will be victorious.
He drinks from a brook in the way, Therefore He lifts up the head!
