“Sit at my right hand(B)
    until I make your enemies
    a footstool for your feet.”(C)

TheLordwill extend your mighty scepter(D)from Zion,(E)saying,
    “Rule(F)in the midst of your enemies!”
Your troops will be willing
    on your day of battle.
Arrayed in holy splendor,(G)
    your young men will come to you
    like dew from the morning’s womb.[b](H)

He will judge the nations,(O)heaping up the dead(P)
    and crushing the rulers(Q)of the whole earth.
He will drink from a brook along the way,[d]
    and so he will lift his head high.(R)
