Psalms 110

1 A psalm of David. The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for you.”

Jehovah says to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

2 The Lord will expand your royal power from Zion; you will rule over your enemies.

Jehovah will send forth the rod of thy strength out of Zion. Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

3 Your people willingly follow you on the day when your power is revealed on the holy mountains, renewed in strength every morning like dew at dawn.

Thy people offer themselves willingly in the day of thy power, in holy array. Out of the womb of the morning thou have the dew of thy youth.

4 The Lord has made a vow he will not break: “You are a priest forever, following the order of Melchizedek.”

Jehovah has sworn, and will not repent. Thou are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

5 The Lord stands right beside you to support you; he will strike down kings in his anger.

The Lord at thy right hand will strike through kings in the day of his wrath.

6 He will execute judgment on the nations, filling their lands with corpses. He will strike down those who rule all over the earth.

He will judge among the nations. He will fill with dead bodies. He will strike through the head in many countries.

7 He will drink from streams beside the path. Therefore he will be victorious.

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