Psalms 110

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 sceptre from Zion, saying,

‘Rule in the midst of your enemies!’

3Your troops will be willing

on your day of battle.

Arrayed in holy splendour,

your young men will come to you

like dew from the morning’s womb.

4The Lord has sworn

and will not change his mind:

‘You are a priest for ever,

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 nations, heaping up the dead

and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.

7He will drink from a brook along the way;

and so he will lift his head high.
