Psalm 8

1  O Lord our governor, ♦︎
   how glorious is your name in all the world!
2  Your majesty above the heavens is praised ♦︎
   out of the mouths of babes at the breast.
3  You have founded a stronghold against your foes, ♦︎
   that you might still the enemy and the avenger.
4  When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, ♦︎
   the moon and the stars that you have ordained,
5  What is man, that you should be mindful of him; ♦︎
   the son of man, that you should seek him out?
6  You have made him little lower than the angels ♦︎
   and crown him with glory and honour.
7  You have given him dominion over the works of your hands ♦︎
   and put all things under his feet,
8  All sheep and oxen, ♦︎
   even the wild beasts of the field,
9  The birds of the air, the fish of the sea ♦︎
   and whatsoever moves in the paths of the sea.
10  O Lord our governor, ♦︎
   how glorious is your name in all the world!

Psalm 110

Assurance of Victory for God’s Priest-King

Of David. A Psalm.
¹ The Lord says to my lord,
   ‘Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies your footstool.’

² The Lord sends out from Zion
   your mighty sceptre.
   Rule in the midst of your foes.
³ Your people will offer themselves willingly
   on the day you lead your forces
   on the holy mountains.^*
From the womb of the morning,
   like dew, your youth^* will come to you.
⁴ The Lord has sworn and will not change his mind,
   ‘You are a priest for ever according to the order of Melchizedek.’^*

⁵ The Lord is at your right hand;
   he will shatter kings on the day of his wrath.
⁶ He will execute judgement among the nations,
   filling them with corpses;
he will shatter heads
   over the wide earth.
⁷ He will drink from the stream by the path;
   therefore he will lift up his head.
