David wrote this Psalm as a prophecy to the coming Davidic King-Priest...
The Lord (Yahweh, namely God the Father) said unto my Lord (Christ, the coming Messiah)
"Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet."
This is an allusion to Christ's rightful place at the right hand of the Father, sitting in judgment of the nations. This is considered to be one of, if not the most, prophetic of all the Psalms, with David pointing to his future Son (meaning one who will come from David's line), who is also his Lord.

Father, Son, Holy Spirit
People Argue Theres no Trinity
So Gods Got stuff Like this that show's their is
So People will say this is a Contradiction
But if this wern't there They'd say theirs No Trinity
So No Matter what God Does
Some PPL are Just Dead Bent
On Talking themselfs into Hell
Even we Have Body Soul & Spirit
Surely God Can Have Three Personages to Himself If we Can
Were Made in His Image
Don't We So Often Debate or Reason within our Members
Almost Like Debateing or even Argueing w/ Ourselfs
So this is Not Strange at All
Could Also Be Upper & Lower Case "L"
Which Could Tell Ya That if Ya went to The Hebrew
It Could Be Two Different Words
But Not Necessarily

The Lord Jehovah (Christ) was talking to His father, God the Eternal Father.
The writers of the Old Testament, to respectfully avoid the overuse of God's proper name, used "Lord" instead. To differentiate between the two, one was entirely in caps, and the other was written "Lord".
Please stop trying to prove the Bible wrong. All you can do is prove that there are a few mistakes caused by man over the years. When the Bible came straight from God's mouth, it was pure truth.

Most Bibles have removed the tetragrammatin (God's personal name in Hebrew) from the scriptures rather than translating it into English because of a Jewish superstition that believes that God's name is too sacred to pronounce. (This information from the introduction to the AMERICAN STANDARD Holy Bible). However, if you will look carefully, most of them also have replaced the tetragrammatin with LORD in all capital letters but when they use Lord referring to Jesus, they will only capitalize the first letter. If your Bible doesn't even do that, you will have to analyze other parts of the scriptures to determine who is who but in this scripture, the LORD is God and my Lord is David in a lesser fulfillment and Jesus in the greater fulfillment.

In the Book of Acts, in the New Testament, this passage is cited as proof of the deity of Jesus christ:
Act 2:32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. 33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. 34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool.
36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Remember, God is triune- Father, Son, Holy Ghost

Ps110:1 "The LORD saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand.."
the first 'LORD' is God the Father Himself.
the second 'LORD' is God the Son, Jesus. In Acts 7:55, the One who is in the right hand of God is Jesus.
both Persons are Lords of David, the one who is speaking.

It's explained in the footnotes of the Living Bible... "Jesus applies these words to Himself"
Not a typo

There were many servants and many leaders in that day. It simply means that his Lord, or better yet his God, said to his Lord, better yet his king, leader, Chief, etc.
God, people get out of first grade and use some contexts clues. Don't go saying is contradicting simply because your too lazy to think.

I think it's the Father talking to the Son. Both are the Lord God.

It means :
"Here is what god (The Lord) said to my king (my lord)...."
not a typo, just an interpretation.
