Translation of the song lyrics Selectiorum aliquot cantionum sacrarum - Vocalconsort Berlin, Орландо ди Лассо

Selectiorum aliquot cantionum sacrarum (original)

Dixit Dominus Domino meo: sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos
scabellum pedum tuorum
Virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus ex Sion: dominare in medio
Inimicorum tuorum
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae in splendoribus sanctorum: ex utero,
ante luciferum, genui te
Juravit Dominus et non poenitebit eum: tu es sacerdos in aeternum secundum
ordinem Melchisedech
Dominus a dextris tuis: confregit in die irae suae reges
Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas: conquassabit capita in terra multorum
De torrente in via bibet: propterea exaltabit caput

Selectiorum aliquot cantionum sacrarum (translation)

The Lord said to my Lord: sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies to rest
your footstool
The Lord will send forth the rod of thy strength from Zion: to rule in the midst
of your enemies
With you the beginning in the day of your power in the splendor of the saints: from the womb,
Before Lucifer, I gave birth to you
The Lord has sworn and he will not repent: you are a priest forever
the order of Melchizedek
The Lord is at your right hand: he broke the kings in the day of his wrath
He will judge the nations, he will fill the ruins: he will shake the heads of many in the land
He shall drink of the stream in the way: therefore shall he lift up his head
