The Lord Gives Dominion to the King.
A Psalm of David.
1The Lord says to my Lord:
“Sit at My right hand
Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”
2The Lord will stretch forth Your strong scepter from Zion, saying,
“Rule in the midst of Your enemies.”
3Your people [a]will volunteer freely in the day of Your [b]power;
In [c]holy array, from the womb of the dawn,
[d]Your youth are to You as the dew.
4The Lord has sworn and will not [e]change His mind,
“You are a priest forever
According to the order of Melchizedek.”
5The Lord is at Your right hand;
He [f]will shatter kings in the day of His wrath.
6He will judge among the nations,
He [g]will fill them with corpses,
He [h]will shatter the [i]chief men over a broad country.
7He will drink from the brook by the wayside;
Therefore He will lift up His head.
