< Psalmorum 110 >
1 David psalmus dixit Dominus Domino meo sede a dextris meis donec ponam inimicos tuos scabillum pedum tuorum
A Psalm of David. The LORD said 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
The LORD extends Your mighty scepter from 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 shall be willing on Your day of battle. Arrayed in holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn, to You belongs the dew of Your youth.
4 iuravit Dominus et non paenitebit eum tu es sacerdos in aeternum 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 irae suae reges
The Lord is at Your right hand; He will crush kings in the day of His wrath.
6 iudicabit in nationibus implebit cadavera conquassabit capita in terra multorum
He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead; He will crush the leaders far and wide.
7 de torrente in via bibet propterea exaltabit caput
He will drink from the brook by the road; therefore He will lift up His head.
