Psalms 110; Psalms 111; Psalms 112

1 The LORD says to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your control."

2 The LORD will make your royal authority spread out from Zion to other lands. You will rule over your enemies who are all around you.

3 Your troops will be willing to fight for you on the day of battle. You will be wrapped in holy majesty. Just as the dew falls fresh early in the morning, you will always be young and strong.

4 The LORD has taken an oath and made a promise. He will not change his mind. He has said, "You are a priest forever, just like Melchizedek."

5 The Lord is at your right hand. He will crush kings on the day when he is angry.

6 He will judge the nations. He will pile up dead bodies on the field of battle. He will crush the rulers of the whole earth.

7 He will drink from a brook along the way and receive new strength. And so he will win the battle.

1 Praise the Lord. I will praise the LORD with all my heart. I will praise him where honest people gather for worship.

2 The LORD has done great things. All who take delight in what he has done will spend time thinking about it.

3 What he does shows his glory and majesty. He will always do what is right.

4 The LORD causes his miracles to be remembered. He is kind and tender.

5 He provides food for those who have respect for him. He remembers his covenant forever.

6 He has shown his people what his power can do. He has given them the lands of other nations.

7 He is faithful and right in everything he does. All his rules can be trusted.

8 They will stand firm for ever and ever. They were given by the Lord. He is faithful and honest.

9 He set his people free. He made a covenant with them that will last forever. His name is holy and wonderful.

10 If you really want to become wise, you must begin by having respect for the Lord. All those who follow his rules have good understanding. People should praise him forever.

1 Praise the Lord. Blessed is the one who has respect for the Lord. He finds great delight when he obeys God's commands.

2 His children will be powerful in the land. Because he is honest, his children will be blessed.

3 His family will have wealth and riches. He will always be blessed for doing what is right.

4 Even in the darkness light shines on honest people. It shines on those who are kind and tender and godly.

5 Good things will come to those who are willing to lend freely. Good things will come to those who are fair in everything they do.

6 They will always be secure. Those who do what is right will be remembered forever.

7 They aren't afraid when bad news comes. They stand firm because they trust in the Lord.

8 Their hearts are secure. They aren't afraid. In the end they will see their enemies destroyed.

9 They have spread their gifts around to poor people. Their good works continue forever. They will be powerful and honored.

10 Evil people will see it and be upset. They will grind their teeth and become weaker and weaker. What evil people long to do can't succeed.
