Psalmorum 110

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

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.”

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

The LORD will send out the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule amongst your enemies.

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

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.

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

The LORD has sworn, and will not change his mind: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

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

The Lord is at your right hand. He will crush kings in the day of his wrath.

6 Iudicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas: conquassabit capita in terra multorum.

He will judge amongst the nations. He will heap up dead bodies. He will crush the ruler of the whole earth.

7 De torrente in via bibet: propterea exaltabit caput.

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