A Psalm by David.
1The Lord says to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand,
until I make Your enemies Your footstool for Your feet.”
2The Lord will send out the rod of Your strength out of Zion.
Rule among Your enemies.
3Your people offer themselves willingly in the day of Your power, in holy array.
Out of the womb of the morning, You have the dew of Your youth.
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 in the day of His wrath.
6He will judge among the nations.
He will heap up dead bodies.
He will crush the ruler of the whole earth.
7He will drink of the brook on the way;
therefore He will lift up His head.
1Psalmus David. Dixit Dominus Domino meo: Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum. 2Virgam virtutis tuæ emittet Dominus ex Sion: dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum. 3Tecum principium in die virtutis tuæ in splendoribus sanctorum: ex utero, ante luciferum, genui te. 4Juravit Dominus, et non pœnitebit eum: Tu es sacerdos in æternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech. 5Dominus a dextris tuis; confregit in die iræ suæ reges. 6Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas; conquassabit capita in terra multorum. 7De torrente in via bibet; propterea exaltabit caput.
