‏ Psalms 89:3-4

v. 3: The psalmist remembers God’s promise: I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn to my servant David . God made a special promise to David, and He will never break His word. This covenant is sure because God Himself has sworn to keep it.

v. 4: God promised, Your seed I will establish forever, and build up your throne to all generations . David’s family would always have a king, and his royal line would last forever. This promise is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who is of David’s family and whose kingdom will never end (Jeremiah 33:20-21 a).
