< Psalms 110 >
1 A Psalm by David. The LORD says to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool for your feet.”
A psalm of David. The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for you.”
2 The LORD will send out the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule among your enemies.
The Lord will expand your royal power from Zion; you will rule over your enemies.
3 Your people offer themselves willingly in the day of your power, in holy array. Out of the womb of the morning, you have the dew of your youth.
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.
4 The LORD has sworn, and will not change his mind: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”
The Lord has made a vow he will not break: “You are a priest forever, following the order of Melchizedek.”
5 The Lord is at your right hand. He will crush kings in the day of his wrath.
The Lord stands right beside you to support you; he will strike down kings in his anger.
6 He will judge among the nations. He will heap up dead bodies. He will crush the ruler of the whole earth.
He will execute judgment on the nations, filling their lands with corpses. He will strike down those who rule all over the earth.
7 He will drink of the brook on the way; therefore he will lift up his head.
He will drink from streams beside the path. Therefore he will be victorious.
