Psalmorum 110

1 Psalmus David. [Dixit Dominus Domino meo: Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.

THE Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

2 Virgam virtutis tuæ emittet Dominus ex Sion: dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.

The Lord shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

3 Tecum principium in die virtutis tuæ in splendoribus sanctorum: ex utero, ante luciferum, genui te.

Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.

4 Juravit Dominus, et non pœnitebit eum: Tu es sacerdos in æternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech.

The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

5 Dominus a dextris tuis; confregit in die iræ suæ reges.

The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.

6 Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas; conquassabit capita in terra multorum.

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

7 De torrente in via bibet; propterea exaltabit caput.]

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