'Anointed' in the Bible
The kings of the earth set themselves, and the princes plot together, against Jehovah and against his anointed:
And I have anointed my king upon Zion, the hill of my holiness.
It is he who giveth great deliverances to his king, and sheweth loving-kindness to his anointed, to David, and to his seed for evermore.
Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; he answereth him from the heavens of his holiness, with the saving strength of his right hand.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou hast anointed my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Jehovah is their strength; and he is the stronghold of salvation to his anointed one.
Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.
Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
I have found David my servant; with my holy oil have I anointed him:
But thou hast rejected and cast off; thou hast been very wroth with thine anointed:
Wherewith thine enemies, O Jehovah, have reproached, wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed.
But my horn shalt thou exalt like a buffalo's: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
Saying, Touch not mine anointed ones, and do my prophets no harm.
For thy servant David's sake, turn not away the face of thine anointed.
There will I cause the horn of David to bud forth; I have ordained a lamp for mine anointed.
