1 A psalm by David. The LORD said to my Lord, "Sit in the highest position in heaven until I make your enemies your footstool." 2 The LORD will extend your powerful scepter from Zion. Rule your enemies who surround you. 3 Your people will volunteer when you call up your army. Your young people will come to you in holy splendor like dew in the early morning. 4 The LORD has taken an oath and will not change his mind: "You are a priest forever, in the way Melchizedek was a priest." 5 The Lord is at your right side. He will crush kings on the day of his anger. 6 He will pass judgment on the nations and fill them with dead bodies. Throughout the earth he will crush their heads. 7 He will drink from the brook along the road. He will hold his head high. GOD'S WORD® is a copyrighted work of God's Word to the Nations.
