Psalms 78:68-72

68but he chose the tribe of Judah,
Mount Zion, which he aloves.
 69He bbuilt his sanctuary like the high heavens,
like the earth, which he has founded forever.
 70He cchose David his servant
and took him from the sheepfolds;
 71from dfollowing the nursing ewes he brought him
to eshepherd Jacob his people,
Israel his finheritance.
 72With gupright heart he shepherded them
and hguided them with his skillful hand.

Psalms 89:19-37

19 iOf old you spoke in a vision to your godly one, ▼
▼Some Hebrew manuscripts  godly ones
 and said:
“I have kgranted help to one who is lmighty;
I have exalted one mchosen from the people.
 20 nI have found David, my servant;
with my holy oil I have oanointed him,
 21so that my phand shall be established with him;
my arm also shall strengthen him.
 22The enemy shall not outwit him;
qthe wicked shall not humble him.
 23I will rcrush his foes before him
and strike down those who hate him.
 24My sfaithfulness and my tsteadfast love shall be with him,
and in my name shall his uhorn be exalted.
 25I will set his hand on vthe sea
and his right hand on wthe rivers.
 26He shall cry to me, ‘You are my xFather,
my God, and ythe Rock of my salvation.’
 27And I will make him the zfirstborn,
aathe highest of the kings of the earth.
 28My steadfast love I will keep for him forever,
and my abcovenant will stand firm ▼
▼Or  will remain faithful
 for him.
 29I will establish his adoffspring forever
and his aethrone as afthe days of the heavens.
 30 agIf his children forsake my law
and do not walk according to my rules, ▼
▼Or  my just decrees

 31if they violate my statutes
and do not keep my commandments,
 32then I will punish their transgression with aithe rod
and their iniquity with stripes,
 33but I will not remove from him my steadfast love
or be false to my faithfulness.
 34I will not violate my ajcovenant
or alter the word that went forth from my lips.
 35Once for all I have sworn akby my holiness;
I will not allie to David.
 36His amoffspring shall endure forever,
anhis aothrone as long as apthe sun before me.
 37Like aqthe moon it shall be established forever,
ara faithful witness in the skies.”  Selah

Psalms 132:11

11 asThe Lord swore to David a sure oath
atfrom which he will not turn back:
au“One of the sons of your body ▼
▼Hebrew  of your fruit of the womb

I will set on your throne.
