1 The Lord said to my lord, ‘Sit at my right hand, ♦︎
until I make your enemies your footstool.’
2 May the Lord stretch forth the sceptre of your power; ♦︎
rule from Zion in the midst of your enemies.
3 ‘Noble are you on this day of your birth; ♦︎
on the holy mountain, from the womb of the dawn
the dew of your new birth is upon you.’
4 The Lord has sworn and will not retract: ♦︎
‘You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.’
5 The king at your right hand, O Lord, ♦︎
shall smite down kings in the day of his wrath.
6 In all his majesty, he shall judge among the nations, ♦︎
smiting heads over all the wide earth.
7 He shall drink from the brook beside the way; ♦︎
therefore shall he lift high his head.
