< Psalmorum 110 >
1 Psalmus David. Dixit Dominus Domino meo: Sede a dextris meis: Donec ponam inimicos tuos, scabellum pedum tuorum.
[A Psalm by David.] Jehovah says to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."
2 Virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus ex Sion: dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
Jehovah will send forth the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies.
3 Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae in splendoribus sanctorum: ex utero ante luciferum genui te.
Your people offer themselves willingly on the day of your power. On the holy mountains at sunrise the dew of your youth will be yours.
4 Iuravit Dominus, et non poenitebit eum: Tu es sacerdos in aeternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
Jehovah 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 irae suae reges.
Jehovah 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 among the nations. He will heap up dead bodies. He will shatter the head throughout a vast territory.
7 De torrente in via bibit: propterea exaltabit caput.
He will drink of the brook in the way; therefore he will lift up his head.
