The text of the psalm

לְדָוִד מִזְמוֹר נְאֻם יְהוָה לַאדֹנִי שֵׁב לִימִינִי עַד־אָשִׁית אֹיְבֶיךָ הֲדֹם לְרַגְלֶֽיךָ׃

A Psalm of David. The LORD saith unto my lord: ‘Sit thou at My right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.'

מַטֵּה־עֻזְּךָ יִשְׁלַח יְהוָה מִצִיּוֹן רְדֵה בְּקֶרֶב אֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃

The rod of Thy strength the LORD will send out of Zion: 'Rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.'

עַמְּךָ נְדָבֹת בְּיוֹם חֵילֶךָ בְּהַדְרֵי־קֹדֶשׁ מֵרֶחֶם מִשְׁחָר לְךָ טַל יַלְדֻתֶֽיךָ׃

Thy people offer themselves willingly in the day of thy warfare; in adornments of holiness, from the womb of the dawn, Thine is the dew of thy youth.

נִשְׁבַּע יְהוָה וְלֹא יִנָּחֵם אַתָּה־כֹהֵן לְעוֹלָם עַל־דִּבְרָתִי מַלְכִּי־צֶֽדֶק׃

The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent: 'Thou art a priest for ever After the manner of Melchizedek.'

אֲדֹנָי עַל־יְמִינְךָ מָחַץ בְּיוֹם־אַפּוֹ מְלָכִֽים׃

The Lord at thy right hand Doth crush kings in the day of His wrath.

יָדִין בַּגּוֹיִם מָלֵא גְוִיּוֹת מָחַץ רֹאשׁ עַל־אֶרֶץ רַבָּֽה׃

He will judge among the nations; He filleth it with the dead bodies, He crusheth the head over a wide land.

מִנַּחַל בַּדֶּרֶךְ יִשְׁתֶּה עַל־כֵּן יָרִים רֹֽאשׁ׃

He will drink of the brook in the way; Therefore will he lift up the head.
