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.

Psalms 110
110
(A psalm by David.)
The LORD gives victory
1The LORD said to my Lord,#Mt 22.44; Mk 12.36; Lk 20.42-43; Ac 2.34,35; 1 Co 15.25; Eph 1.20-22; Col 3.1; He 1.13; 8.1; 10.12,13.
“Sit at my right side,#110.1 right side: See the note at 16.11.
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 your strength.#110.3 You will…strength: One possible meaning for the difficult Hebrew text.
4The LORD has made a promise#He 5.6; 6.20; 7.17,21.
that will never be broken:
“You will be a priest for ever,
just like Melchizedek.”
5My 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.#110.7 while…victory: Or “God will give him victory after victory.”
