1A PSALM OF DAVID. A declaration of YHWH to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand, || Until I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
2YHWH sends the rod of Your strength from Zion, || Rule in the midst of Your enemies.
3Your people [are] free-will gifts in the day of Your strength, in the honors of holiness, || From the womb, from the morning, || You have the dew of Your youth.
4YHWH has sworn, and does not relent, “You [are] a priest for all time, || According to the order of Melchizedek.”
5The Lord on Your right hand struck kings || In the day of His anger.
6He judges among the nations, || He has completed the carcasses, || Has struck the head over the mighty earth.
7He drinks from a brook in the way, || Therefore He lifts up the head!
