Psalms 110

1 A Psalm. Of David. The Lord said to my lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put all those who are against you under your feet.

[A Psalm by David.] The LORD says to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."

2 The Lord will send out the rod of your strength from Zion; be king over your haters.

The LORD will send forth the rod of your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies.

3 Your people give themselves gladly in the day of your power; like the dew of the morning on the holy mountains is the army of your young men.

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 The Lord has made an oath, and will not take it back. You are a priest for ever, after the order of Melchizedek.

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

5 In the day of his wrath kings will be wounded by the Lord at your right hand.

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

6 He will be judge among the nations, the valleys will be full of dead bodies; the head over a great country will be wounded by him.

He will judge among the nations. He will heap up dead bodies. He will shatter the head throughout a vast territory.

7 He will take of the stream by the way; so his head will be lifted up.

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