Psalms 110

1 Yahweh said to my lord [the king], “Sit [here], close to me, in the place of highest honor [MTY] until I [completely defeat] your enemies [MET] [and] make [them like] a stool for your feet!”

Von David, ein Lied. - Ein Spruch des Herrn an meinen Herrn: "Zu meiner Rechten setze dich! Ich mache deine Feinde zum Schemel deiner Füße."

2 Yahweh [also said to him], “I will extend your power as king from Jerusalem [to other lands]; you will rule over all your enemies.

Dein machtvoll Zepter laß der Herr weit über Sions Grenzen reichen! Steig du hinab in deiner Feinde Mittel

3 On the day that you lead your armies into battle, many of your people will volunteer [to join your army]. Like the dew refreshes the earth early in the morning, young men will [encourage you by] coming to help you.”

Dir huldige dein Volk an deinem Krönungsfest in heiliger Festesfreude! Und deiner jungen Männer Schar laß hoch dich leben!

4 Yahweh has made a solemn promise, and he will never change his mind; he has said to the king, “You will be a priest forever [serving Yahweh] like Melchizedek did.”

Geschworen hat der Herr und es gereut ihn nicht: "Du sollst auf ewig Priester sein, nach meinem Worte ein Melchisedech!"

5 Yahweh stands [in the place of highest honor] your right side; when he becomes angry, he will defeat [many kings].

Der Herr zu deiner Rechten zerschmettert Könige an seinem Zornestage.

6 He will judge and punish the people of [many] nations; he will fill the land with their corpses. He will crush the heads of other kings all over the earth.

Er gehe mit den frevelschwangern Heiden ins Gericht, zerschmettre Fürsten auf dem breiten Plane.

7 But my lord the king will drink from streams near the road; he will be refreshed after defeating his enemies.

Er trinke auf dem Zuge Wasser aus dem Bach und setze so dem Werk die Krone auf!
