Justin Martyr, First Apology 40

Listen to how it was foretold, through the prophetic Spirit, concerning those who preached his teaching and announced his appearing, by the prophet and king already mentioned: Day after day pours forth speech, and night after night declares knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world. In the sun he has set his tent, and he, like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, rejoices like a giant to run his course. (Psalm 19:2-5) In addition to these, we also deemed it right and fitting to recall other words prophesied through the Spirit of David, from which you can learn how the prophetic Spirit urges human beings to live, and how it announces what was done by Herod the king of the Jews and the Jews and Pilate, your governor among them, with his soldiers against the Christ; and that he was about to be believed by people from every nation; and that God calls him Son and has promised to subject all enemies to him; and how the demons, as far as they are able, try to flee the authority of the Father of all and Master, God, and of the Spirit of Christ; and how God calls all to repentance before the day of judgment arrives. It has been said thus: Blessed is the man who did not walk in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the pestilential; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he will meditate day and night. And he will be like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither, and whatever he does prospers. Not so the ungodly, not so; rather, they are like chaff which the wind drives away from the face of the earth. Therefore the ungodly will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the counsel of the righteous; for the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly will perish. (Psalm 1:1-6) Why did the nations rage, and the peoples devise new things? The kings of the earth took their stand, and the rulers gathered together against the Lord and against his Christ, saying: Let us break their bonds and cast their yoke from us. He who dwells in the heavens will laugh at them, and the Lord will mock them; then he will speak to them in his anger, and in his wrath he will trouble them. But I was established as king by him on Zion, his holy mountain, proclaiming the decree of the Lord. The Lord said to me: You are my Son, today I have begotten you. Ask of me, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance, and the ends of the earth as your possession; you will shepherd them with a rod of iron, as a potter's vessels you will shatter them. (Psalm 2:1-9) And now, kings, understand; be instructed, all you who judge the earth. Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice before him with trembling. Take hold of instruction, lest the Lord become angry and you perish from the way of the righteous, when his wrath is kindled quickly. Blessed are all who trust in him. Take hold of instruction. (Psalm 2:10-12)
