Psalms 110:2

110:2 The Lord extends your dominion from Zion.

Rule in the midst of your enemies!

Psalms 136:11

136:11 and led Israel out from their midst,

for his loyal love endures,

Psalms 136:14

136:14 and led Israel through its midst,

for his loyal love endures,


tn Since the Lord is mentioned in the third person (note the use of the first person in v. 1), it is likely that these are the psalmist’s words to the king, not a continuation of the oracle per se.

tn The prefixed verbal form is understood here as descriptive-dramatic or as generalizing, though it could be taken as future.

tn Heb “your strong scepter,” symbolic of the king’s royal authority and dominion.
