| New King James Version | New Living Translation |
| 1A Psalm of David. The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, Till 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 shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies! | 2The LORD will extend your powerful kingdom from Jerusalem ; you will rule over your enemies. |
| 3Your people shall be volunteers In the day of Your power; In the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning, You have the dew of Your youth. | 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 relent, “You are a priest forever According to 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 shall execute kings in 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 shall judge among the nations, He shall fill the places with dead bodies, He shall execute the heads of many countries. | 6He will punish the nations and fill their lands with corpses; he will shatter heads over the whole earth. |
| 7He shall drink of the brook by the wayside; Therefore He shall lift up the head. | 7But he himself will be refreshed from brooks along the way. He will be victorious. |
