Psalm 40:6–8

6  cIn sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,

but you have given me an open ear.1

Burnt offering and sin offering

you have not required.

7  Then I said, “Behold, I have come;

in the scroll of the book it is written of me:

8  I ddelight to do your will, O my God;

your law is within my heart.”


Psalm 110

Sit at My Right Hand

A Psalm of David.

1  sThe Lord says to my Lord:

t“Sit at my right hand,

until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2  The Lord sends forth from Zion

your mighty scepter.

uRule in the midst of your enemies!

3  Your people will offer themselves vfreely

on the day of your power,1

in holy garments;2

from the womb of the morning,

the dew of your youth will be yours.3

4  wThe Lord has sworn

and xwill not change his mind,

y“You are a zpriest forever

after the order of aMelchizedek.”

5  The Lord is bat your right hand;

he will shatter kings on the day of his wrath.

6  He will execute cjudgment among the nations,

filling them with corpses;

he will dshatter chiefs4

over the wide earth.

7  He will drink from the brook by the way;

therefore he will lift up his head.
