Psalms 110

1 A Psalm of David. The affirmation of Jehovah to my Lord: 'Sit at My right hand, Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.'

A psalm of David. Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 The rod of thy strength doth Jehovah send from Zion, Rule in the midst of thine enemies.

Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion; rule among your enemies.

3 Thy people [are] free-will gifts in the day of Thy strength, in the honours of holiness, From the womb, from the morning, Thou hast the dew of thy youth.

Your people will follow you in holy garments of their own free will on the day of your power; from the womb of the dawn your youth will be to you like the dew.

4 Jehovah hath sworn, and doth not repent, 'Thou [art] a priest to the age, According to the order of Melchizedek.'

Yahweh has sworn, and will not change: “You are a priest forever, after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5 The Lord on thy right hand smote kings In the day of His anger.

The Lord is at your right hand. He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6 He doth judge among the nations, He hath completed the carcases, Hath smitten the head over the mighty earth.

He will judge the nations; he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies; he will kill the leaders in many countries.

7 From a brook in the way he drinketh, Therefore he doth lift up the head!

He will drink of the brook along the road, and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
