Chapter 109

Christ rising and ascending into heaven sitteth on the right hand of God: ℣.2 beginning in Jerusalem reigneth in the Church of the whole earth: ℣.4 useth the Priesthood of Melchisedech's order to the end of the world. ℣.6 And shall judge the world.

1. 1

   A Psalm of David. Our Lord said to my Lord: Sit on my right hand: till I make thine enemies, the foot-stool of thy feet.

2. 2

   Our Lord will send forth the rod of thy strength from Sion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.

3. 3

   With thee the beginning in the day of thy strength: in the brightness of holy things: from the womb before the day star I begat thee.

4. 4

   Our Lord sware, and it shall not repent him: Thou art a Priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedech.

5. 5

   Our Lord on thy righthand hath broken kings in the day of his wrath.

6. 6

   He shall judge in nations, he shall fill ruins, he shall crush the heads in the land of many.

7. 7

   Of the torrent in the way he shall drink: therefore shall he exalt the head.
