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.

Psalms 110
110
1-3The word of God to my Lord:
“Sit alongside me here on my throne
until I make your enemies a stool for your feet.”
You were forged a strong scepter by God of Zion;
now rule, though surrounded by enemies!
Your people will freely join you, resplendent in holy armor
on the great day of your conquest,
Join you at the fresh break of day,
join you with all the vigor of youth.
4-7 God gave his word and he won’t take it back:
you’re the permanent priest, the Melchizedek priest.
The Lord stands true at your side,
crushing kings in his terrible wrath,
Bringing judgment on the nations,
handing out convictions wholesale,
crushing opposition across the wide earth.
The King-Maker put his King on the throne;
the True King rules with head held high!
