1 A psalm of David:
Adonaisays to my Lord,
“Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies
your footstool.”
2 Adonaiwill send your powerful scepter
out from Tziyon,
so that you will rule over
your enemies around you.
3 On the day your forces mobilize,
your people willingly offer themselves
in holy splendors from the womb of the dawn;
the dew of your youth is yours.
4 Adonaihas sworn it,
and he will never retract —
“You are acohenforever,
to be compared with Malki-Tzedek.”
5 Adonaiat your right hand
will shatter kings on the day of his anger.
6 He will pass judgment among the nations,
filling it with dead bodies;
he will shatter heads
throughout an extensive territory.
7 He will drink from a stream as he goes on his way;
therefore he will hold his head high.
