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 will volunteer freely in the day of Your power;
         In holy array, from the womb of the dawn,
         Your youth are to You as the dew.

4The LORD has sworn and will not change His mind,
         “You are a priest forever
         According to the order of Melchizedek.”

5The Lord is at Your right hand;
         He will shatter kings in the day of His wrath.

6He will judge among the nations,
         He will fill them with corpses,
         He will shatter the chief men over a broad country.

7He will drink from the brook by the wayside;
         Therefore He will lift up His head.
