Psalms, chapter 110
(A psalm by David.)
The Lord Gives Victory
he Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right side,
until I make your enemies into a footstool for you.”
2The Lord will let your power reach out from Zion,
and you will rule over your enemies.
3Your glorious power will be seen
on the day you begin to rule.
You will wear the sacred robes
and shine like the morning sun in all of your strength.
4The Lord has made a promise
that will never be broken:
“You will be a priest forever, just like Melchizedek.”
5The Lord is at your right side,
and when he gets angry he will crush the other kings.
6He will judge the nations and crack their skulls,
leaving piles of dead bodies all over the earth.
7He will drink from any stream that he chooses,
while winning victory after victory.
