Psalms 110

1A Psalm of David. The affirmation of Jehovah to my Lord: `Sit at My right hand, Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.'

1 Jehovah said unto my Lord, Sit at my right hand, until I put thine enemies [as] footstool of thy feet.

1I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; in the council of the just, and in the congregation.

2The rod of thy strength doth Jehovah send from Zion, Rule in the midst of thine enemies.

2 Jehovah shall send the sceptre of thy might out of Zion: rule in the midst of thine enemies.

2Great are the works of the Lord: sought out according to all his wills.

3Thy people <FI>are<Fi> free-will gifts in the day of Thy strength, in the honours of holiness, From the womb, from the morning, Thou hast the dew of thy youth.

3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in holy splendour: from the womb of the morning [shall come] to thee the dew of thy youth.

3His work is praise and magnificence: and his justice continueth for ever and ever.

4Jehovah hath sworn, and doth not repent, `Thou <FI>art<Fi> a priest to the age, According to the order of Melchizedek.'

4 Jehovah hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek.

4He hath made a remembrance of his wonderful works, being a merciful and gracious Lord:

5The Lord on thy right hand smote kings In the day of His anger.

5 The Lord at thy right hand will smite through kings in the day of his anger.

5He hath given food to them that fear him. He will be mindful for ever of his covenant:

6He doth judge among the nations, He hath completed the carcases, Hath smitten the head over the mighty earth.

6 He shall judge among the nations; he shall fill [all places] with dead bodies; he shall smite through the head over a great country.

6He will shew forth to his people the power of his works.

7From a brook in the way he drinketh, Therefore he doth lift up the head!

7 He shall drink of the brook in the way; therefore shall he lift up the head.

7That he may give them the inheritance of the Gentiles: the works of his hands are truth and judgment.
