Psalms 110

1 The LORD said to my Lord, Sit you at 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 a footstool for your feet."

2 The LORD shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion: rule you in the middle of your enemies.

The LORD will send forth the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies.

3 Your people shall be willing in the day of your power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: you have the dew of your youth.

Your people offer themselves willingly on the day of your power. On the holy mountains at sunrise the dew of your youth will be yours.

4 The LORD has sworn, and will not repent, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

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 shall strike through 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 among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads over many countries.

He will judge among the nations. He will heap up dead bodies. He will shatter the head throughout a vast territory.

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

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