“PSALM CX. 1 The oracle of Jehovah to my lord; Sit Thou [enthroned] at My right hand, Until I make Thine enemies the stool for Thy feet. 2 The sceptre of Thy might shall Jehovah stretch forth from Zion, "Rule Thou in the midst of Thine enemies." 3 Thy people are free-will offerings in the day of Thine army; In holy attire, From the womb of the dawn, [Comes] to Thee the dew of Thy youth[s]. 4 Jehovah has sworn and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever, After the manner of Melchizedek. …”
