Psalmus David. Dixit Dominus Domino meo : Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.
A psalm for David. The Lord said to my Lord: Sit thou at my right hand: Until I make thy enemies thy footstool.
Virgam virtutis tuæ emittet Dominus ex Sion : dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
The Lord will send forth the sceptre of thy power out of Sion: rule thou in the midst of thy enemies.
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuæ in splendoribus sanctorum : ex utero, ante luciferum, genui te.
With thee is the principality in the day of thy strength: in the brightness of the saints: from the womb before the day star I begot thee.
Juravit Dominus, et non pœnitebit eum : Tu es sacerdos in æternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
The Lord hath sworn, and he will not repent: Thou art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech.
Dominus a dextris tuis ; confregit in die iræ suæ reges.
The Lord at thy right hand hath broken kings in the day of his wrath.
Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas ; conquassabit capita in terra multorum.
He shall judge among nations, he shall fill ruins: he shall crush the heads in the land of many.
De torrente in via bibet ; propterea exaltabit caput.
He shall drink of the torrent in the way: therefore shall he lift up the head.
