Psalm 110 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

A psalm of David.

(Mat 22:44; Act 2:34, 35 )

This is the declaration of the LORD

to my Lord:

“Sit at my right hand

until I make your enemies your footstool.”

The LORD will extend your mighty scepter from Zion.

Rule[fn] over your surrounding[fn] enemies.

Your people will volunteer

on your day of battle.[fn]

In holy splendor, from the womb of the dawn,

the dew of your youth belongs to you.[fn]

The LORD has sworn an oath and will not take it back:

“You are a priest forever

according to the pattern of Melchizedek.”

The Lord is at your right hand;

he will crush kings on the day of his anger.

He will judge the nations, heaping up corpses;

he will crush leaders over the entire world.

He will drink from the brook by the road;

therefore, he will lift up his head.

One Hb ms, LXX, Tg read You will rule

Lit Rule in the midst of your

Lit power

Hb obscure
