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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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