Psalm 89:28-30
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

28 I myself make him the firstborn,
    Most High[a] over the kings of the earth.
29 Forever I will maintain my mercy for him;(A)
    my covenant with him stands firm.
30 I will establish his dynasty forever,
    his throne as the days of the heavens.

Footnotes

  1. 89:28 Most High: a divine title, which is here extended to David as God’s own king, cf. Ps 2:7–9; Is 9:5. As God rules over the members of the heavenly council (Ps 89:6–9), so David, God’s surrogate, rules over earthly kings.
