Psalm 110
Dixit Dominus
The Book of Common Prayer (1979) · 7 verses
- 1
The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand, *
until I make your enemies your footstool." - 2
The LORD will send the scepter of your power out of Zion, *
saying, "Rule over your enemies round about you. - 3
Princely state has been yours from the day of your birth; *
in the beauty of holiness have I begotten you, like dew from the womb of the morning." - 4
The LORD has sworn and he will not recant: *
"You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek." - 5
The Lord who is at your right hand will smite kings in the day of his wrath; *
he will rule over the nations. - 6
He will heap high the corpses; *
he will smash heads over the wide earth. - 7
He will drink from the brook beside the road; *
therefore he will lift high his head.
