Tuesday music spot: first part of Handel's "Dixit Dominus"

For anyone who is interested and does not already know, "Dixit Dominus" means "Thus says the Lord"

The lyrics in Latin for the first chorus are:

Dixit Dominus Domino meo:
Sede a dextris meis, donec ponam inimicos tuos scabellum pedum tuorum.


which translates as

The Lord said unto my Lord:
Sit thou on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy foot-stool.
