7 Bible Verses about Messianic Psalms

W hy did the heathen rage and the people imagine vain things? The kings of the earth stood up and the rulers came together against the LORD, and against his Christ. Let us break their bonds asunder, and cast away their cords from us.read more.
He that dwelleth in heaven shall laugh them to scorn: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure, "Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion." As for me, I will preach the law, whereof the LORD hath said unto me, "Thou art my son, this day have I begotten thee. Desire of me, and I shall give thee the Heathen for thine inheritance; and the uttermost parts of the world for thy possession. Thou shalt bruise them with a rod of iron, and break them in pieces like a potter's vessel." Be wise now therefore, O ye kings; be warned, ye that are judges of the earth. Serve the LORD in fear, and rejoice unto him in reverence. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and so ye perish from the right way. For his wrath shall be kindled shortly: blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

{To the Chanter, upon Shoshannim, an instruction of the children of Korah; a song of love} My heart is inditing of a good matter; I speak the things which I have made unto the King. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer. Thou art the fairest among the children of men; full of grace are thy lips, because God hath blessed thee for ever. Gird thee with thy sword upon thy thigh, O thou Most Mighty, according to thy worship and renown.read more.
Good luck have thou with thine honour; ride on with the truth, meekness and righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things. Thy arrows are sharp, and the people shall be subdued unto thee, even in the midst among the king's enemies. Thy seat, O God, endureth forever: the scepter of thy kingdom is a right scepter. Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; wherefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. All thy garments smell of myrrh, aloes and cassia, when thou comest out of thine ivory palaces in thy beautiful glory. Kings' daughters go in thy goodly array, and upon thy righthand standeth the queen in a vesture of the most fine gold. Hearken, O daughter, and consider; incline thine ear. Forget also thine own people, and thy father's house. So shall the king have pleasure in thy beauty; for he is thy LORD, and thou shalt worship him. The daughters of Tyre shall be there with gifts, the rich among the people shall make their supplication before thee. The king's daughter is all glorious within, her clothing is of wrought gold. She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework; the virgins that be her fellows shall bear her company, and shall be brought unto thee. With joy and gladness shall they be brought, and shall enter into the king's palace. Instead of thy fathers thou shalt have children, whom thou mayest make princes in all lands. I will remember thy name from one generation to another; therefore shall the people give thanks unto thee, world without end.

{Of Solomon} Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son. Then shall he judge thy people according unto right, and defend the poor. The mountains also shall bring peace, and the little hills righteousness unto the people.read more.
He shall keep the simple folk by their right, defend the children of the poor, and punish the wrongdoer. Thou shalt be feared as long as the sun and moon endureth, from one generation to another. He shall come down like the rain into a fleece of wool, even as the drops that water the earth. In his time shall the righteous flourish, yea, and abundance of peace, so long as the moon endureth. His dominion shall be from the one sea to the other, and from the flood unto the world's end. They that dwell in the wilderness shall kneel before him, and his enemies shall lick the dust. The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall give presents; the kings of Sheba and Seba shall bring gifts. All kings shall fall down before him; all nations shall do him service. For he shall deliver the poor when he crieth, and the needy that hath no help. He shall be favorable to the simple and poor; he shall preserve the souls of such as be in adversity. He shall deliver their souls from extortion and wrong, and dear shall their blood be in his sight. He shall live, and unto him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer shall be made ever unto him, and daily shall he be praised. There shall be a heap of corn in the earth, high upon the hills; his fruit shall shake like Lebanon, and shall be green in the city like grass upon the earth. His name shall endure forever; his name shall remain under the sun among the posterities, which shall be blessed in him. And all the heathen shall praise him. Blessed be the LORD God, even the God of Israel, which only doeth wondrous things. And blessed be the name of his majesty forever; and all the lands be fulfilled with his glory. Amen, Amen. Here end the prayers of David, the son of Jesse.

{A Psalm of David} The LORD said unto my LORD, "Sit thou on my righthand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." The LORD shall send the rod of thy power out of Zion; be thou ruler, even in the midst among thine enemies. In the day of thy power shall thy people offer thee free-will offerings with a holy worship; the dew of thy birth is of the womb of the morning.read more.
The LORD sware, and will not repent, "Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek." The LORD upon thy righthand shall smite even kings in the day of his wrath. He shall be judge among the heathen; he shall fill them with dead bodies, and smite in sunder the heads over divers countries. He shall drink of the brook in the way; therefore shall he lift up his head.

{Michtam of David} Preserve me, O God, for in thee have I put my trust. O my soul, thou hast said unto the LORD, "Thou art my God, my goods are nothing like unto thee." All my delight is upon the saints that are in the earth, and upon such as excel in virtue.read more.
But they that run after another god shall have great trouble. Their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, neither make mention of their names within my lips. The LORD himself is the portion of mine inheritance, and of my cup; thou shalt maintain my lot. The lot is fallen unto me in fair ground; yea I have a goodly heritage. I will thank the LORD for giving me warning: my reins also chasten me in the night season. I have set the LORD always before me; for he is on my righthand. Therefore I shall not fall. Wherefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; my flesh also shall rest in hope. For why? Thou shalt not leave my soul in hell, neither shalt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. Thou shalt show me the path of life; in thy presence is the fulness of joy, and at thy righthand there is pleasure for evermore.

{To the Chanter, upon Aijeleth of the dawning, a Psalm of David} My God, my God: why hast thou forsaken me, and art so far from my health and from the words of my complaint? O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not: and in the night season also I take no rest. And thou continuest holy, O thou worship of Israel.read more.
Our fathers hoped in thee; they trusted in thee, and thou didst deliver them. They called upon thee, and were helped: they put their trust in thee, and were not confounded. But as for me, I am a worm and no man: a very scorn of men and the outcast of the people. All they that see me, laugh me to scorn: they shoot out their lips, and shake their heads. "He trusted in the LORD, that he would deliver him; let him deliver him, if he will have him." But thou art he that took me out of my mother's womb; thou wast my hope, when I hanged yet upon my mother's breasts. I have been left unto thee ever since I was born; thou art my God, even from my mother's womb. O go not far from me then, for trouble is hard at hand, and here is none to help me. Many oxen are come about me; fat bulls of Bashan close me in on every side. They gape upon me with their mouths, as it were a rampaging and a roaring lion. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart also in the midst of my body is even like melting wax. My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaveth to my gums, and thou shalt bring me into the dust of death. For many dogs are come about me, the counsel of the wicked layeth siege against me. They pierced my hands and my feet; I may tell all my bones. They stand staring and looking upon me. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. But be not thou far from me, O LORD; thou art my succor. Haste thee to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword, my darling from the power of the dog. Save me from the lion's mouth, and hear me from among the horns of the unicorns. I will declare thy name unto my brethren; in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee. O praise the LORD, ye that fear him! Magnify him, all ye seed of Jacob, and fear him, all ye seed of Israel. For he hath not despised nor abhorred the low estate of the poor: he hath not hid his face from him, but when he called unto him, he heard him. My praise is of thee in the great congregation; my vows will I perform in the sight of them that fear him. The poor shall eat, and be satisfied: they that seek after the LORD shall praise him. Your heart shall live for ever. All the ends of the world shall remember themselves, and be turned unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the people shall worship before him. For the kingdom is the LORD's, and he is the governour among the people. All such as be fat upon earth have eaten and worshipped. All they that go down into the dust shall kneel before him; and no man hath quickened his own soul. My seed shall serve him; they shall be counted unto the LORD for a generation. They shall come, and declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, whom the LORD hath made.

{To the chanter, a Psalm of David} I waited patiently for the LORD, and he inclined unto me, and heard my calling. He brought me out of the horrible pit, out of the mire and clay; he set my feet upon the rock, and ordered my goings. He hath put a new song in my mouth, even a thanksgiving unto our God. Many men seeing this, shall fear the LORD, and put their trust in him.read more.
Blessed is the man that hath set his hope in the LORD, and turned not unto the proud, and to such as go about with lies. O LORD my God, great are the wondrous works which thou hast done, like as be also thy thoughts, which are to us-ward; and yet there is no man that ordereth them unto thee. If I should declare them, and speak of them, they should be more than I am able to express. Sacrifice and meat-offering thou wouldest not, but mine ears hast thou opened. Burnt-offerings and sacrifice for sin hast thou not required. Then said I, "Lo, I come. In the beginning of the book it is written of me, that I should fulfill thy will, O my God. I am content to do it; yea, thy law is within my heart." I will preach of thy righteousness in the great congregation: Lo, I will not refrain my lips, O LORD, and that thou knowest. I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; my talk hath been of thy truth, and of thy salvation. Withdraw not thou thy mercy from me, O LORD, but let thy loving-kindness and thy truth always preserve me. For innumerable troubles are come about me; my sins have taken such hold upon me, that I am not able to look up. Yea, they are more in number than the hairs of my head, and my heart hath failed me. O LORD, let it be thy pleasure to deliver me; make haste, O LORD, to help me. Let them be ashamed and confounded together, that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward, and put to rebuke, that wish me evil. Let them be desolate, and rewarded with shame, that say unto me, "There! There!" But let all those that seek thee, be joyful and glad in thee; and let such as love thy salvation, say always, "The LORD be praised!" As for me, I am poor, and in misery, but the LORD careth for me. Thou art my helper and redeemer; make no long tarrying, O my God.
