The Lord will extend your mighty sceptre from Zion.
Rule[a] over your surrounding[b] enemies.(A)
Your people will volunteer
on your day of battle.[c](B)
In holy splendour, from the womb of the dawn,
the dew of your youth belongs to you.[d](C)
The Lord has sworn an oath and will not take it back:
‘You are a priest for ever
according to the pattern of Melchizedek.’(D)
