Psalm 109 verse 8 says:-
"Let his days be few; and let another take his office"
This says nothing about US President Obama, however some fundamentalist Christian preachers may perhaps use these words to express a wish about his term of office as US president. However, the verse could be used to express a wish about any leader anywhere in the world by those that do not like/support them....there is nothing prophetic in it, and it smacks of bigotry.
Answer:This Psalm speaks of vengeance on God's adversaries and is also referred to as a cursing Psalm (see Psalm 35). In the New Testament, verse 8 is applied to Judas, who betrayed Jesus. It says nothing about Obama.

Which verse in Psalms lets you know the author of Psalm 23?
There is nothing in Psalm 23 that actually tells us who wrote the psalm, but there is a possible clue. It was the practice of the Hebrew people to anoint their kings and high priests with oil, a practice mentioned in verse 5. Psalm 23 is traditionally attributed to King David, but scholars say they form a literary genre unknown at the time of David. They say that the psalms were really written during and after the Babylonian Exile, a time when there were no longer any kings of Judah. Verse 5 points, with some uncertainty, to its author as a high priest.
Who wrote Psalm 109?
A:Psalm 109 is a spiteful psalm full of hatred towards an unidentified personal adversary, traditionally attributed to King David, to the chief musician of his court. However, scholars say that the psalms were a literary genre unknown at the time of King David, and that the psalms were actually written over a period of more than two hundred years during and after the Babylonian Exile.Further evidence for the later dating is to be found in the mention of Satan in verse 6: Satan was never mentioned in any book written before the Babylonian Exile. Also, verse 22 describes the author as poor and needy, something that is not supposed to be a good description of David. Moreover, why would a king lower himself to publish a psalm against one of his own subjects, rather than simply using his authority to remove the person.We know approximately when the psalms were written, but not by whom. We do not know who wrote Psalm 109.
What does Psalm 46 verse 6 say?

Who wrote Psalm 95?
AnswerLike all the psalms, Psalm 95 was written anonymously. Although we can not know exactly who wrote this, or any other psalm, we can say that it was approximately when the author lived. The psalms are traditionally attributed to the time of David and Solomon. but modern scholars say that they were actually written over a period of more than two hundred years, during and after the Babylonian Exile. We can narrow this down and say that Psalm 95 was probably quite early, compared to others, because it does not insist dogmatically that the God of the Jews is the only god - (verse 3) "For the LORD is the great God, the great King above all gods"; (verse 7) " for he is our God...".

It depends on context. If you are talking about Psalm 124, you would say "Psalm 124" since it is the name of that particular poem. If you wish to reference the specific verse Psalms 124:18, then you would say "Psalms" since that is the name of the book.
What verse does it say Obama?
It doesn't. You may have seen this claim online: it seems to come from several evangelical preachers, who say that the Bible "predicts" Barack Obama, and also claim that he is the anti-Christ. This is false. The Bible never mentions the name "Obama" nor does it predict anything about him. And no, he is not the anti-Christ, nor does any verse of scripture claim that he is.

Who wrote Psalm 69?
A:The King James Bible attributes Psalm 69 to King David, although scholars say that the psalms were a genre unknown at the time of David. There is evidence in the text that Psalm was written after the time of David and probably during the Babylonian Exile. Verse 9 refers to the house of God, the Temple, which is not supposed to have existed in the time of David. Zion (verse 35) became a name for Jerusalem, and "God will save Zion" refers to a time when Jerusalem was under threat or had been destroyed - the time of the Babylonian Exile. The overall despondent tone of the psalm also brings to mind the depths of the Exile, especially the reference to "prisoners" in verse 33. Reference to "waterflood" in verses 1 and 15 seems out of place in Jerusalem, but suits Babylon, which is adjacent to the great Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.Like all the psalms, Psalm 69 is anonymous and all we can say is that it must have been written during the Babylonian Exile.
What is the middle verse in the Bible?
Using the KJV, counting verse only, there are 31,102 verses.Since that's an even number, there can be no 'center' verse, but the center falls between:PSALM 103:1 and PSALM 103:2Another view could be argued as thus:Using the KJV, counting chapters only, Psalm 117 is the "center" chapter, consisting of only two verses. Again an even number, having no exact center verse, the center verses of the center chapter would fall between:PSALM 117:1 and PSALM 117:2It's simple math. PSALM 117 basically says "Praise the Lord"Another thought:Though there is much controversy over this, some people feel that Psalms 118:8 is exactly in the middle of the Bible, with 594 chapters before and 594 chapters after it. The scripture reads: "It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."(Psalm 118:8 KJV)
How do you write a speech on Psalm 133.1?
Psalm 133:1: "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" Traditionally, the psalm is attributed to King David, but scholars say that the psalms are a genre that was unknown at the time of David. They say the psalms were actually written during and after the Babylonian Exile. Note the fond reference to Zion in verse 3: this would be quite incongruous for David, but in keeping for Jews in exile or just returned to Zion (Jerusalem).First of all decide whether you will talk about the verse as a religious statement in the context of the psalm or as a secular statement of wisdom.If you decide to talk about verse 1 in context of the psalm as a whole, you should decide whether to follow the traditional or scholarly view as to authorship, as that will influence your understanding of the psalm. The scholarly view would point to the brothers (or brethren) as all the Jews in exile and supporting each other, or back in Jerusalem and working together to restore their city. The traditional view requires some speculation as to what David would have meant.If you decide to talk about the wisdom contained within the verse, your scope is much wider. It is good for brothers (actual brothers or comrades) to be united.
