Tap a verse to highlight it

1 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; in the council of the just, and in the congregation.

2 Great are the works of the Lord: sought out according to all his wills.

3 His work is praise and magnificence: and his justice continueth for ever and ever.

4 He hath made a remembrance of his wonderful works, being a merciful and gracious Lord:

5 He hath given food to them that fear him. He will be mindful for ever of his covenant:

6 He will shew forth to his people the power of his works.

7 That he may give them the inheritance of the Gentiles: the works of his hands are truth and judgment.

8 All his commandments are faithful: confirmed for ever and ever, made in truth and equity.

9 He hath sent redemption to his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever. Holy and terrible is his name:

10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. A good understanding to all that do it: his praise continueth for ever and ever.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Psalm 110 known for?
It's a short messianic psalm in which the LORD tells "my Lord" to sit at his right hand until his enemies become his footstool (v.1), and declares him "a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek" (v.4).
Who is Melchizedek, referenced in verse 4?
The text itself doesn't explain who Melchizedek was; v.4 simply quotes God's oath that this figure holds a permanent priesthood. The New Testament later applies this verse to Christ, as in Hebrews 10:12-13.
What happens in the psalm's closing verses?
Verses 5-7 picture the Lord's right hand striking down kings in the day of wrath and judging among the nations, ending with him drinking "of the brook in the way" before lifting up his head.
