Psalms



Psalm 110

A psalm of David.

   1 Here is the LORD's proclamation to my LORD: "Sit down at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool!"
   2 The LORD extends your dominion from Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies!
   3 Your people willingly follow you when you go into battle. On the holy hills at sunrise the dew of your youth belongs to you.
   4 The LORD makes this promise on oath and will not revoke it: "You are an eternal priest after the pattern of Melchizedek."
   5 O sovereign LORD, at your right hand he strikes down kings in the day he unleashes his anger.
   6 He executes judgment against the nations; he fills the valleys with corpses; he shatters their heads over the vast battlefield.
   7 From the stream along the road he drinks; then he lifts up his head.
