Language: Latin

1 Psalmus David.
  Dixit Dominus Domino meo:
  Sede a dextris meis,
  donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.
2 Virgam virtutis tuæ emittet Dominus ex Sion:
  dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
3 Tecum principium in die virtutis tuæ
  in splendoribus sanctorum:
  ex utero, ante luciferum, genui te.
4 Juravit Dominus, et non pœnitebit eum:
  Tu es sacerdos in æternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
5 Dominus a dextris tuis;
  confregit in die iræ suæ reges.
6 Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas;
  conquassabit capita in terra multorum.
7 De torrente in via bibet;
  propterea exaltabit caput.
