Psalm 110
A psalm by David.
1The Lord said to my Lord,
“Take the honored position—the one next to me [God the Father] on the heavenly throne
until I put your enemies under your control.”#110:1 Or “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.”
2The Lord will extend your powerful scepter from Zion.
Rule your enemies who surround you.
3Your people will volunteer when you call up your army.
Your young people will come to you in holy splendor
like dew in the early morning.#110:3 Or “You have the dew of your youth.”
4The Lord has taken an oath and will not change his mind:
“You are a priest forever, in the way Melchizedek was a priest.”
5The Lord is at your right side.
He will crush kings on the day of his anger.
6He will pass judgment on the nations
and fill them with dead bodies.
Throughout the earth he will crush ⌞their⌟ heads.
7He will drink from the brook along the road.
He will hold his head high.
