The Lord Appoints a King

A song of David.

110 The Lord said to my Master,
“Sit by me at my right side
    until I put your enemies under your control.”
The Lord will make you king in Jerusalem over all nations.
    And you will rule your enemies in their own countries.
Your people will join you on the day you come to power.
    You have been dressed in holiness from birth.
    You have the freshness of a child.

The Lord has made a promise
    and will not change his mind.
He said, “You are a priest forever,
    a priest like Melchizedek.”

The Lord is beside you to help you.
    When he becomes angry, he will crush kings.
He will judge those nations, filling them with dead bodies.
    He will defeat rulers all over the world.
The king will drink from the brook on the way.
    Then he will be strengthened and win the battle.
