Zaburi 110

1 Yahwe humwambia bwana wangu, “Kaa mkono wangu wa kuume mpaka nitakapowaweka adui zako chini ya miguu yako.”

Of David, a psalm. This said the Lord concerning my lord, ‘Sit at my right hand, till I set your foot on the neck of your foes.’

2 Yahwe atainyosha fimbo ya nguvu yako toka Sayuni; utawale kati ya adui zako.

On Zion the Lord is wielding your sceptre of might, and charges you to rule over the foes that surround you.

3 Siku ile ya uweza wako watu wako watakufuata wakiwa katika mavazi matakatifu ya hiari yao wenyewe; tokea tumbo la alfajiri ujana wako utakuwa kwako kama umande.

The day that you march to battle your people will follow you gladly young warriors in holy array, like dew-drops, born of the morning.

4 Yahwe ameapa, na hatabadilika: “Wewe ni kuhani milele, baada ya namna ya Melkizedeki.”

The Lord has sworn and will not repent, ‘As for you, you are priest for ever as Melchizedek was.’

5 Bwana yuko mkono wako wa kuume. Siku ile ya hasira yake atawaua wafalme.

By your side will the Lord shatter kings on the day of his wrath.

6 Yeye atahukumu matifa; ataujaza uwanja wa vita kwa maiti; atawauwa viongozi kaitka nchi nyingi.

He will execute judgment filling the valleys with dead, the broad fields with shattered heads.

7 Atakunywa maji ya kijito njiani, kisha baada ya ushindi atainua kichwa chake juu.

He will drink of the brook by the way, and march onward with uplifted head.
