 Let them know that this is your hand, * that you, O, have done it.

They may curse, but you will bless; * let those who rise up against me be put to shame, and your servant will rejoice.

Let my accusers be clothed with disgrace * and wrap themselves in their shame as in a cloak.

I will give great thanks to the with my mouth; * in the midst of the multitude will I praise him;

Because he stands at the right hand of the needy, * to save his life from those who would condemn him.

The said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, * until I make your enemies your footstool.”

The will send the scepter of your power out of Zion, * saying, “Rule over your enemies round about you.

Princely state has been yours from the day of your birth; * in the beauty of holiness have I begotten you, like dew from the womb of the morning.”

The has sworn and he will not recant: * “You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”

The Lord who is at your right hand will smite kings in the day of his wrath; * he will rule over the nations.
