Psalm 110

¹The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, *until I make your enemies your footstool.”

²The Lord will send the scepter of your power out of Zion, *saying, “Rule over your enemies round about you.

³Princely state has been yours from the day of your birth; *in the beauty of holiness have I begotten you, like dew from the womb of the morning.”

⁴The Lord has sworn and he will not recant: *“You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”

⁵The Lord who is at your right hand will smite kings in the day of his wrath; *he will rule over the nations.

⁶He will heap high the corpses; *he will smash heads over the wide earth.

⁷He will drink from the brook beside the road; *therefore he will lift high his head.
