English Standard Version | New Living Translation |
1The LORD says to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.” | 1The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit in the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.” |
2The LORD sends forth from Zion your mighty scepter. Rule in the midst of your enemies! | 2The LORD will extend your powerful kingdom from Jerusalem ; you will rule over your enemies. |
3Your people will offer themselves freely on the day of your power, in holy garments; from the womb of the morning, the dew of your youth will be yours. | 3When you go to war, your people will serve you willingly. You are arrayed in holy garments, and your strength will be renewed each day like the morning dew. |
4The LORD has sworn and will not change his mind, “You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” | 4The LORD has taken an oath and will not break his vow: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.” |
5The Lord is at your right hand; he will shatter kings on the day of his wrath. | 5The Lord stands at your right hand to protect you. He will strike down many kings when his anger erupts. |
6He will execute judgment among the nations, filling them with corpses; he will shatter chiefs over the wide earth. | 6He will punish the nations and fill their lands with corpses; he will shatter heads over the whole earth. |
7He will drink from the brook by the way; therefore he will lift up his head. | 7But he himself will be refreshed from brooks along the way. He will be victorious. |
