Psalm 110

Assurance of Victory for God’s Priest-King

Of David. A Psalm.

 

1 The Lord says to my lord,

"Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies your footstool."

2 The Lord sends out from Zion

your mighty scepter.

Rule in the midst of your foes.

3 Your people will offer themselves willingly

on the day you lead your forces

on the holy mountains. †

From the womb of the morning,

like dew, your youth † will come to you.

4 The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind,

"You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek." †

5 The Lord is at your right hand;

he will shatter kings on the day of his wrath.

6 He will execute judgment among the nations,

filling them with corpses;

he will shatter heads

over the wide earth.

7 He will drink from the stream by the path;

therefore he will lift up his head.
