Psalm 110
The Priestly King
A Davidic psalm.
1 This is the declaration of the Lord
to my Lord:
“Sit at My right hand
until I make Your enemies Your footstool.”(A)
2 The Lord will extend Your mighty scepter from Zion.
Rule[a] over Your surrounding[b] enemies.(B)
3 Your people will volunteer
on Your day of battle.[c](C)
In holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn,
the dew of Your youth belongs to You.[d](D)
4 The Lord has sworn an oath and will not take it back:
“Forever, You are a priest
like Melchizedek.”(E)
5 The Lord is at Your right hand;
He will crush kings on the day of His anger.(F)
6 He will judge the nations, heaping up corpses;(G)
He will crush leaders over the entire world.(H)
7 He will drink from the brook by the road;(I)
therefore, He will lift up His head.(J)
