(A psalm by David.)

The Lord Gives Victory

(A) The Lord said to my Lord,
    “Sit at my right side,[a]
until I make your enemies
    into a footstool for you.”

The Lord will let your power
    reach out from Zion,
and you will rule
    over your enemies.
Your glorious power
will be seen on the day
    you begin to rule.
You will wear the sacred robes
and shine like the morning sun
    in all of your strength.[b]

Of David. A psalm.

The Lord says(A) to my lord:[a]

“Sit at my right hand(B)
    until I make your enemies
    a footstool for your feet.”(C)

The Lord will extend your mighty scepter(D) from Zion,(E) saying,
    “Rule(F) in the midst of your enemies!”
Your troops will be willing
    on your day of battle.
Arrayed in holy splendor,(G)
    your young men will come to you
    like dew from the morning’s womb.[b](H)
