A psalm by David.

110 The Lord said to my Lord,
“Take the honored position—the one next to me [God the Father] on the heavenly throne
until I put your enemies under your control.”[a]

The Lord will extend your powerful scepter from Zion.
Rule your enemies who surround you.

Your people will volunteer when you call up your army.
Your young people will come to you in holy splendor
like dew in the early morning.[b]
