PSALM 110
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David.
1The Lord did say unto my Lord,
Sit thou at my right hand,
Until I make thy foes a stool,
whereon thy feet may stand.
2The Lord shall out of Sion send
the rod of thy great pow'r:
In midst of all thine enemies
be thou the governor.
3A willing people in thy day
of pow'r shall come to thee,
In holy beauties from morn's womb;
thy youth like dew shall be.
4The Lord himself hath made an oath,
and will repent him never,
Of th' order of Melchisedec
thou art a priest for ever.
5The glorious and mighty Lord,
that sits at thy right hand,
Shall, in his day of wrath, strike through
kings that do him withstand.
6He shall among the heathen judge,
he shall with bodies dead
The places fill: o'er many lands
he wound shall ev'ry head.
7The brook that runneth in the way
with drink shall him supply;
And, for this cause, in triumph he
shall lift his head on high.

Psalm 110
Of David. A psalm.
1The Lord says to my lord:#110:1 Or Lord
‘Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet.’
2The Lord will extend your mighty sceptre from Zion, saying,
‘Rule in the midst of your enemies!’
3Your troops will be willing
on your day of battle.
Arrayed in holy splendour,
your young men will come to you
like dew from the morning’s womb.#110:3 The meaning of the Hebrew for this sentence is uncertain.
4The Lord has sworn
and will not change his mind:
‘You are a priest for ever,
in the order of Melchizedek.’
5The Lord is at your right hand#110:5 Or My lord is at your right hand, Lord;
he will crush kings on the day of his wrath.
6He will judge nations, heaping up the dead
and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.
7He will drink from a brook along the way;#110:7 The meaning of the Hebrew for this clause is uncertain.
and so he will lift his head high.
