Psalm 110

The LORD and His Chosen King

1   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. 

4   The  LORD  made  a  solemn  promise  and  will  not  take  it  back: 
    “You  will  be  a  priest  forever 
    in  the  priestly  order  of  Melchizedek.” 

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.
