1 Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion;

rule among your enemies.

3 Your people will follow you in holy garments

of their own free will on the day of your power;

from the womb of the dawn your youth will be to you like the dew.

4 Yahweh has sworn, and will not change:

“You are a priest forever,

after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5 The Lord is at your right hand.

He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6 He will judge the nations;

he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies;

he will kill the leaders in many countries.

7 He will drink of the brook along the road,

and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
