Birthday Bible Verse For Husband – From the Old Testament

I am sharing this collection of birthday Bible verse for husband from my heart. These verses are not in the order they appear in the Bible!

A way to get your mind into that of praising your husband is from the verses in the Song of Solomon. Consider the words of this excellent wife as she praises her husband:

Song of Solomon 5:10-16 – Praise Your Husband’s Looks

My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand.

His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven. His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set.

His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh.

His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl: his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires.

His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: his countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars. His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely.

This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem. (KJV)

No matter how old your amazing husband is, he is special, and he is beautiful. Take time, not only around birthday celebrations but every day, to compliment him on his physical attributes.  Read the book of Song of Solomon for romantic inspiration.

Isaiah 45:11 – Ask God to Bless Your Husband

Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me. (KJV)

Asking for God’s blessings for your husband – one of God’s sons, is encouraged by God Himself in this verse. 

1 Kings 8:57 – Encourage Your Husband To Seek God

The LORD our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us: (KJV)

and this verse as well:

Psalm 22:4 – Encourage Your Husband To Trust God 

Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. (KJV)

The Bible is a book of history. The people in the Bible are “our fathers”. These two verses are good reminders to your husband to read the Bible to grow in his faith in God.

1 Chronicles 17:11 – Encourage Your Husband To Leave A Legacy

And it shall come to pass, when thy days be expired that thou must go to be with thy fathers, that I will raise up thy seed after thee, which shall be of thy sons; and I will establish his kingdom. (KJV)

While your dear husband may not be a king, this verse is a comforting reminder that the same God who gave him life will be faithful in taking care of his family after he passes away. 

Proverbs 17:6 – Your Husband Is The Glory Of His Children

Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers. (KJV)

 As your husband gets older, it seems that your children will appreciate him more. Especially when your children become parents themselves, they may realize the wisdom of their parents, especially that of their father.

Psalm 73:26 – God Is Your Husband’s Strength Now And Into Eternity

My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever. (KJV)

If your dearest husband is dealing with heart issues, and/or declining physical strength, God’s love for him is eternal. 

Proverbs 16:3 – Good Direction For Your Husband

Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. (KJV)

Direction, we all need it. Whenever your husband needs direction, encourage him to seek God.

Proverbs 4:10 -Benefits Of Obeying God

Hear, O my son, and receive my sayings; and the years of thy life shall be many. (KJV)

Every man wants to enjoy good health. This verse is a reminder that one of the benefits of obeying God is a long physical life.

Proverbs 23:19 – Wisdom For Your Husband

Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine heart in the way. (KJV)

Wise Solomon is instructing his son, and our husbands as well in this verse. While we may hear the advice, “Follow your heart” this verse rather tells us to “guide” not “follow” our heart “in the way” – meaning God’s way.

Proverbs 24:21 – Advice For Your Husband

My son, fear thou the LORD and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change. (KJV)

Again Solomon has words of wisdom to husband as he instructs sons to both fear the Lord and also fear those in authority.

1 Chronicles 4:10 – May God Keep Your Husband From Evil

And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested. (KJV)

This is the famous prayer of Jabez. But you can make these elements yours as well, especially praying that God would keep your husband from evil. Evil is grievous and you don’t want it to trouble your husband.

Psalm 65:11 – A Year Of Goodness

Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness. (KJV)

 This is an excellent verse to include in your husband’s birthday card.

Isaiah 46:4 – God Never Stops Caring For Your Husband

And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you. (KJV)

Just as your husband is your best friend and he knows that you will not leave him no matter how many gray hairs he may have; this verse is a comfort that God cares for him as he ages.

Proverbs 3:5 – Trust God For Your Husband’s Direction 

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. (KJV)

Here is another verse about seeking God’s direction for the decisions we need to make even daily. 

Habakkuk 3:19 – Trust God For Your Husband’s Strength

The LORD God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds’ feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places. (KJV)

Hinds are a particular species of deer. Just as deer are strong and nimble, God will give strength for the hard work your husband does.

Psalm 138:8  – God Is Perfecting Your Husband

The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands. (KJV)

Your husband is a work of God’s hand. He knew your husband and formed him in his mother’s womb. As long as your husband is alive, the Lord is working with him. 

Jeremiah 33:3  – God’s Invitation To Talk With Him

Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. (KJV)

Almighty God invites your husband to talk to him and promises that He will answer with great blessings.

Zephaniah 3:17  – God Rejoices Over Your Husband

The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing. (KJV)

God Himself rejoices in your husband. You can remind him of this as you wish him a wonderful birthday.

Encourage your husband to think about God’s Word.

Numbers 6:24-26  – A Benediction For Your Husband

The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace. (KJV)

These verses are a benediction, and they are the perfect compliment to wishing your husband a wonderful birthday.

Psalm 101:6  – An Encouragement To Be Faithful In Serving God

Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me. (KJV)

Perfect means “complete and mature”. Encourage your husband to be faithful in his service and love of God.

Nehemiah 7:2  – An Example Of A Faithful Man

That I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem: for he was a faithful man, and feared God above many. (KJV)

This is just a passing mention of the man Hananiah. Having the reputation of being both a faithful man and a man who feared God more than many others, is an excellent testimony. Pray that this would be said about your husband as well.

Psalm 91:15 – God’s Promise To Your Husband 

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. (KJV)

In times of trouble, this is a wonderful verse to pray over your husband and his trials.

Psalm 9:10  – God Is Faithful To Your Husband

And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. (KJV)
