1Yahweh says to my master, “Sit at my right hand
until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2Yahweh will hold out the scepter of your strength from Zion;
rule among your enemies.

3Your 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.

4Yahweh has sworn, and will not change:
“You are a priest forever,
after the manner of Melchizedek.”

5The Lord is at your right hand.
He will kill kings on the day of his anger.

6He will judge the nations;
he will fill the battlegrounds with dead bodies;
he will kill the leaders in many countries.

7He will drink of the brook along the road,
and then he will lift his head up high after victory.
