A Psalm of David.

“Sit at My right hand
Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”

But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them in my presence.”

Lick

“Kings will be your guardians,
And their princesses your nurses.
They will bow down to you with their faces to the earth
And lick the dust of your feet;
And you will know that I am the Lord;
Those who hopefully wait for Me will not be put to shame.

They will lick the dust like a serpent,
Like reptiles of the earth.
They will come trembling out of their fortresses;
To the Lord our God they will come in dread
And they will be afraid before You.

Cities of ruthless nations will revere You.

“From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia
My worshipers, My dispersed ones,
Will bring My offerings.

Until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
