Psalmorum 110

1 David psalmus dixit Dominus Domino meo sede a dextris meis donec ponam inimicos tuos scabillum pedum tuorum

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

2 virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus ex Sion dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum

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

3 tecum principium in die virtutis tuae in splendoribus sanctorum ex utero ante luciferum genui te

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 iuravit Dominus et non paenitebit eum tu es sacerdos in aeternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech

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

5 Dominus a dextris tuis confregit in die irae suae reges

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

6 iudicabit in nationibus implebit cadavera conquassabit capita in terra multorum

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

7 de torrente in via bibet propterea exaltabit caput

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