Dixit Dominus

1  The Lord said unto my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, *
until I make your enemies your footstool.”
   419

2  The Lord shall send the scepter of your power out of Zion: *
“Rule in the midst of your enemies.”
3  In the day of your power the people, in holy raiment,
  shall offer you freewill offerings; *
from the womb of the morning, the dew of your youth 
belongs to you. 
4  The Lord has sworn and will not recant: *
“You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”
5  The Lord at your right hand *
shall smite kings in the day of his wrath.
6  He shall judge the nations; *
he shall fill the lands with dead bodies, and strike down 
heads over many countries.
7  He shall drink from the brook by the way; *
therefore shall he lift up his head.
