1 The Lord said to my lord, Sit at my right hand, ♦︎
until I make your enemies your footstool.
2 May the Lord stretch forth the sceptre of your power; ♦︎
rule from Zion in the midst of your enemies.
3 Noble are you on this day of your birth; ♦︎
on the holy mountain, from the womb of the dawn
the dew of your new birth is upon you.
4 The Lord has sworn and will not retract: ♦︎
You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
5 The king at your right hand, O Lord, ♦︎
shall smite down kings in the day of his wrath.
6 In all his majesty, he shall judge among the nations, ♦︎
smiting heads over all the wide earth.
7 He shall drink from the brook beside the way; ♦︎
therefore shall he lift high his head.
1 Alleluia.
O praise God in his holiness; ♦︎
praise him in the firmament of his power.
2 Praise him for his mighty acts; ♦︎
praise him according to his excellent greatness.
3 Praise him with the blast of the trumpet; ♦︎
praise him upon the harp and lyre.
4 Praise him with timbrel and dances; ♦︎
praise him upon the strings and pipe.
5 Praise him with ringing cymbals; ♦︎
praise him upon the clashing cymbals.
6 Let everything that has breath ♦︎
praise the Lord.
Alleluia.
