1 | A psalm by David.
|
נְאֻ֤ם יְהוָ֨ה ׀ לַֽאדֹנִ֗י
|
YHWH’s oracle to my lord:
| |
שֵׁ֥ב לִֽימִינִ֑י
|
“Sit at my right side,
| |
עַד־אָשִׁ֥ית אֹ֝יְבֶ֗יךָ הֲדֹ֣ם לְרַגְלֶֽיךָ׃
|
until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”
| |
מַטֵּֽה־עֻזְּךָ֗ יִשְׁלַ֣ח יְ֭הוָה מִצִּיּ֑וֹן
|
2 | YHWH will extend your strong staff from Zion.
|
רְ֝דֵ֗ה בְּקֶ֣רֶב אֹיְבֶֽיךָ׃
|
Rule among the midst of your enemies!
| |
עַמְּ ךָ֣נְדָבֹת֮ בְּי֪וֹם חֵ֫ילֶ֥ךָ
|
3 | Your people will be willing on the day you manifest your power.
|
בְּֽהַדְרֵי־קֹ֭דֶשׁ מֵרֶ֣חֶם מִשְׁחָ֑ר
|
On holy mountains, from the womb of dawn,
| |
לְ֝ךָ֗ טַ֣ל יַלְדֻתֶֽיךָ׃
|
The dew, your young men, [will come] into your possession.
| |
נִשְׁבַּ֤ע יְהוָ֨ה ׀ וְלֹ֥א יִנָּחֵ֗ם
|
4 | YHWH has sworn, and he will not change his mind:
|
אַתָּֽה־כֹהֵ֥ן לְעוֹלָ֑ם
|
“You are forever a priest
| |
עַל־דִּ֝בְרָתִ֗י מַלְכִּי־צֶֽדֶק׃
|
just like Melchizedek.”
| |
אֲדֹנָ֥י עַל־יְמִֽינְךָ֑
|
5 | The Lord at your right side
|
מָחַ֖ץ בְּיוֹם־ אַפּ֣וֹ מְלָכִֽים׃
|
smashed kings on the day his anger was unleashed.
| |
יָדִ֣ין בַּ֭גּוֹיִם מָלֵ֣א גְוִיּ֑וֹת
|
6 | He will rule among the nations whom he filled with corpses.
|
מָ֥חַץ רֹ֝֗אשׁ עַל־אֶ֥רֶץ רַבָּֽה׃
|
He smashed heads across the wide world.
| |
מִ֭נַּחַל בַּדֶּ֣רֶךְ יִשְׁתֶּ֑ה
|
7 | He will drink from a wadi on the campaign.
|
עַל־כֵּ֝֗ן יָרִ֥ים רֹֽאשׁ׃
|
Therefore, he will lift [his] head.
