Psalms 132:12

10 For Your servant David’s sake,
Do not turn away the face of Your¹ Anointed.

11 ^aThe Lord has sworn in truth to David;
He will not turn from it:
“I will set upon your throne ^bthe fruit of your body.

12 If your sons will keep My covenant
And My testimony which I shall teach them,
Their sons also shall sit upon your throne forevermore.”

13 ^aFor the Lord has chosen Zion;
He has desired it for His¹ dwelling place:

14 “This^a is My resting place forever;
Here I will dwell, for I have desired it.

Psalms 132:12

If thy children will keep my covenant - This was conditional with respect to the posterity of David. They have been driven from the throne, because they did not keep the Lord' s covenant, but the true David is on the throne, and his posterity forms the genuine Israelites.
