Psalms 110

The Lord commands the ruler to sit at His right hand until all enemies are defeated. The ruler will extend power from Zion, ruling over enemies with willing troops. The Lord has sworn that the ruler is a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek. The Lord will assist the ruler in judging and defeating nations.

1The LORD says to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet."2The LORD will extend your mighty scepter from Zion; you will rule in the midst of your enemies.3Your troops will be willing on your day of battle. Arrayed in holy majesty, from the womb of the dawn you will receive the dew of your youth.4The LORD has sworn and will not change his mind: "You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek."5The Lord is at your right hand; he will crush kings on the day of his wrath.6He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead and crushing the rulers of the whole earth.7He will drink from a brook beside the way; therefore he will lift up his head.
