Psalms 110
The Lord and His Chosen King[a]
1 (a)The Lord said to my lord,
"Sit here at my right side
until I put your enemies under your feet."
2 From Zion the Lord will extend your royal power.
"Rule over your enemies," he says.
3 On the day you fight your enemies,
your people will volunteer.
Like the dew of early morning
your young men will come to you on the sacred hills.[b]
4 (b)The Lord made a solemn promise and will not take it back:
"You will be a priest forever
in the priestly order of Melchizedek."[c]
5 The Lord is at your right side;
when he becomes angry, he will defeat kings.
6 He will pass judgment on the nations
and fill the battlefield with corpses;
he will defeat kings all over the earth.
7 The king will drink from the stream by the road,
and strengthened, he will stand victorious.
