Kunga vārds viņa ķēniņam – priesterim
(Mt 22:44Apd 2:34–35)1 Dāvida psalms .
Kungs teica manam kungam:
sēdi pie manas labās rokas,
un es darīšu tavus naidniekus
par kājsolu! –
2 Kungs sniedz tev no Ciānas varas zizli,
valdi pār naidniekiem, kas tev visapkārt!
3 Tava tauta ziedojas dienā,
kad tavs karaspēks svētajos kalnos!
Kā rasa no ausmas klēpja
tavi jaunekļi dodas pie tevis!
4 Kungs ir zvērējis un neatsacīsies:
uz mūžiem tu priesteris pēc Melhisedeka!
5 Kungs pie tavas labās rokas,
savā dusmu dienā viņš dragās ķēniņus,
6 viņš tiesās tautas – miesām noklās! –
dragās galvas, cik zeme plata!
7 No strauta ceļmalā viņš dzers,
tad augstu cels galvu!
(A psalm by David.)
The Lord Gives Victory
1 The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at my right side,
until I make your enemies
into a footstool for you.”
2 The Lord will let your power
reach out from Zion,
and you will rule
over your enemies.
3 Your glorious power
will be seen on the day
you begin to rule.
You will wear the sacred robes
and shine like the morning sun
in all of your strength.
4 The Lord has made a promise
that will never be broken:
“You will be a priest forever,
just like Melchizedek.”
5 The Lord is at your right side,
and when he gets angry
he will crush
the other kings.
6 He will judge the nations
and crack their skulls,
leaving piles of dead bodies
all over the earth.
7 He will drink from any stream
that he chooses, while winning
victory after victory.
