Announcement of the Messiah’s Reign
A Psalm of David.
1 The aLord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your bfootstool.”
2 The Lord shall send the rod of Your strength cout of Zion.
dRule in the midst of Your enemies!
3 eYour people shall be volunteers
In the day of Your power;
fIn the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning,
You have the dew of Your youth.
And gwill not relent,
“You are a hpriest forever
According to the order of iMelchizedek.”
5 The Lord is jat Your right hand;
He shall 1execute kings kin the day of His wrath.
6 He shall judge among the nations,
He shall fill the places with dead bodies,
lHe shall 2execute the heads of many countries.
7 He shall drink of the brook by the wayside;
mTherefore He shall lift up the head.
About The New King James VersionThe New King James Version is a total update of the 1611 King James Version, also known as the "Authorized Version." Every attempt has been made to maintain the beauty of the original version while updating the English grammar to contemporary style and usage. The result is much better "readability." It is noteworthy that the NKJV is one of the few modern translations still based on the "Western" or "Byzantine" manuscript tradition. This makes the New King James Version an invaluable aid to comparative English Bible study. |
