Psalm 110

1The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies your footstool."
2The LORD will send the scepter of your power out of Zion,
saying, "Rule over your enemies round about you.
3Princely state has been yours from the day of your birth;
in the beauty of holiness have I begotten you,
like dew from the womb of the morning."
4The LORD has sworn and he will not recant:
"You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek."
5The Lord who is at your right hand
will smite kings in the day of his wrath;
he will rule over the nations.
6He will heap high the corpses;
he will smash heads over the wide earth.
7He will drink from the brook beside the road; *
therefore he will lift high his head.
