Sit at My Right Hand

A Psalm of David.

¹qThe Lord says to my Lord:

r“Sit at my right hand,

suntil I make your enemies your tfootstool.”

²The Lord sends forth ufrom Zion

vyour mighty scepter.

wRule in the midst of your enemies!

³xYour people will yoffer themselves freely

on the day of your zpower,1

in aholy garments;2

from the womb of the morning,

the dew of your youth will be yours.3

⁴bThe Lord has csworn

and will dnot change his mind,

e“You are fa priest gforever

after the order of hMelchizedek.”

⁵The Lord is at your iright hand;

he will jshatter kings on kthe day of his wrath.

⁶He will lexecute judgment among the nations,

mfilling them with corpses;

he will nshatter chiefs4

over the wide earth.

⁷He will odrink from the brook by the way;

therefore he will lift up his head.
