26Let them know that this is your hand, *
that you, O Lord, have done it.
27They may curse, but you will bless; *
let those who rise up against me be put to shame,
and your servant will rejoice.
28Let my accusers be clothed with disgrace *
and wrap themselves in their shame as in a cloak.
29I will give great thanks to the Lord with my mouth; *
in the midst of the multitude will I praise him;
30Because he stands at the right hand of the needy, *
to save his life from those who would condemn him.
Twenty‑third Day: Morning Prayer
110Dixit Dominus
1The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, *
until I make your enemies your footstool.”
2The Lord will send the scepter of your power out of Zion, *
saying, “Rule over your enemies round about you.
3Princely state has been yours from the day of your birth; *
in the beauty of holiness have I begotten you,
like dew from the womb of the morning.”
4The Lord has sworn and he will not recant: *
“You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”
5The Lord who is at your right hand
will smite kings in the day of his wrath; *
he will rule over the nations.
