Psalm 110

Psalm 110

A psalm of David.

¹The Lord said to my Lord,

“Sit in the place of honor at my right hand

until I humble your enemies,

making them a footstool under your feet.”

²The Lord will extend your powerful kingdom from Jerusalem;

you will rule over your enemies.

³When you go to war,

your people will serve you willingly.

You are arrayed in holy garments,

and your strength will be renewed each day like the morning dew.

⁴The Lord has taken an oath and will not break his vow:

“You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

⁵The Lord stands at your right hand to protect you.

He will strike down many kings when his anger erupts.

⁶He will punish the nations

and fill their lands with corpses;

he will shatter heads over the whole earth.

⁷But he himself will be refreshed from brooks along the way.

He will be victorious.
