1 T he Lord (God) says to my Lord (the Messiah), Sit at My right hand, until I make Your adversaries Your footstool.

2 T he Lord will send forth from Zion the scepter of Your strength; rule, then, in the midst of Your foes.

3 Y our people will offer themselves willingly in the day of Your power, in the beauty of holiness and in holy array out of the womb of the morning; to You Your young men, who are as the dew.

4 T he Lord has sworn and will not revoke or change it: You are a priest forever, after the manner and order of Melchizedek.

5 T he Lord at Your right hand will shatter kings in the day of His indignation.

6 H e will execute judgment upon the nations; He will fill the valleys with the dead bodies, He will crush the heads over lands many and far extended.

7 H e will drink of the brook by the way; therefore will He lift up His head.
