Psalm 109 [MT 110]

  • Royal
1

[A Psalm of David.] The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

Ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυΐδ. - ΕΙΠΕΝ ὁ Κύριος τῷ Κυρίῳ μου· κάθου ἐκ δεξιῶν μου, ἕως ἂν θῶ τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποπόδιον τῶν ποδῶν σου.

2

The Lord shall send out a rod of power for thee out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

ῥάβδον δυνάμεως ἐξαποστελεῖ σοι Κύριος ἐκ Σιών, καὶ κατακυρίευε ἐν μέσῳ τῶν ἐχθρῶν σου.

3

With thee is dominion in the day of thy power, in the splendours of thy saints: I have begotten thee from the womb before the morning.

μετὰ σοῦ ἡ ἀρχὴ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ τῆς δυνάμεώς σου ἐν ταῖς λαμπρότησι τῶν ἁγίων σου· ἐκ γαστρὸς πρὸ ἑωσφόρου ἐγέννησά σε.

4

The Lord sware, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedec.

ὤμοσε Κύριος καὶ οὐ μεταμεληθήσεται· σὺ ἱερεὺς εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κατὰ τὴν τάξιν Μελχισεδέκ.

5

The Lord at thy right hand has dashed in pieces kings in the day of his wrath.

Κύριος ἐκ δεξιῶν σου συνέθλασεν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ὀργῆς αὐτοῦ βασιλεῖς·

6

He shall judge among the nations, he shall fill up [the number of] corpses, he shall crush the heads of many on the earth.

κρινεῖ ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσι, πληρώσει πτώματα, συνθλάσει κεφαλὰς ἐπὶ γῆς πολλῶν.

7

He shall drink of the brook in the way; therefore shall he lift up the head.

ἐκ χειμάρρου ἐν ὁδῷ πίεται· διὰ τοῦτο ὑψώσει κεφαλήν.
