New King James Version NKJV
New Living Translation NLT
1 A Psalm of David. The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool."
1
The 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.”
2 The Lord shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies!
2
The LORD will extend your powerful kingdom from Jerusalem ; you will rule over your enemies.
3 Your 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.
3
When 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.
4 The Lord has sworn And will not relent, "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek."
4
The LORD has taken an oath and will not break his vow: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”
5 The Lord is at Your right hand; He shall execute kings in the day of His wrath.
5
The Lord stands at your right hand to protect you. He will strike down many kings when his anger erupts.
6 He shall judge among the nations, He shall fill the places with dead bodies, He shall execute the heads of many countries.
6
He will punish the nations and fill their lands with corpses; he will shatter heads over the whole earth.
7 He shall drink of the brook by the wayside; Therefore He shall lift up the head.
7
But he himself will be refreshed from brooks along the way. He will be victorious.
