Psalms 110

The Lord Appoints a King

A psalm of David.

1 The Lord said to my Lord,
"Sit by me at my right side
    until I put your enemies under your control."
2 The Lord will enlarge your kingdom beyond Jerusalem,
    and you will rule over your enemies.
3 Your people will join you on your day of battle.
    You have been dressed in holiness from birth;
    you have the freshness of a child.

4 The Lord has made a promise
    and will not change his mind.
He said, "You are a priest forever,
    a priest like Melchizedek."

5 The Lord is beside you to help you.
    When he becomes angry, he will crush kings.
6 He will judge those nations, filling them with dead bodies;
    he will defeat rulers all over the world.
7 The king will drink from the brook on the way.
    Then he will be strengthened.
