Text translations - Dixit Dominus

Dixit Dominus Domino meo: Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos, scabellum pedum tuorum.
The Lord says to my Lord: Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.
Virgam virtutis tuae, emittet Dominus ex Sion: dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
The Lord will extend your might sceptre from Zion: you will rule in the midst of your enemies.
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae in splendoribus sanctorum: ex utero ante luciferum genui te.
Your troops will be willing on your day of battle: arrayed in holy majesty, from the womb of the dawn you will receive the dew of your youth.
Juravit Dominus, et non poenitebit eum:
The Lord has sworn, and will not change his mind:
Tu es sacerdos in aeternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.
Dominus a dextris tuis, confregit in die irae suae reges.
The Lord is at your right hand, he will crush kings on the day of his wrath.
Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas: conquassabit capita in terra multorum
He will judge nations, heaping up the dead and crushing the rulers of the whole earth
De torrente in via bibet: propterea exaltabit caput
He will drink from a brook beside the way; therefore he will lift up his head.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto, sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning, is now and shall be forever. Amen

Psalm 110
