Psalm 110

Of David. A psalm.

1The Lord says to my Lord:

“Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies

a footstool for your feet.”

2The Lord will extend your mighty scepter from Zion;

you will rule in the midst of your enemies.

3Your troops will be willing

on your day of battle.

Arrayed in holy majesty,

from the womb of the dawn

you will receive the dew of your youth.^a

4The Lord has sworn

and will not change his mind:

“You are a priest forever,

in the order of Melchizedek.”

5The Lord is at your right hand;

he will crush kings on the day of his wrath.

6He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead

and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.

7He will drink from a brook beside the way^b;

therefore he will lift up his head.
