Psalms 110:7
5 The Lord is at Your right hand; He will crush kings in the day of His wrath.
6 He will judge the nations, heaping up the dead; He will crush the leaders far and wide.
He will drink from the brook by the road; therefore He will lift up His head.
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
