Contextual Overview

19 Once, in a vision, you spoke to those who worship you. You said, "I have given strength to a warrior; I have raised up a young man from my people. 20 I have found my servant David; I appointed him by pouring holy oil on him. 21 I will steady him with my hand and strengthen him with my arm. 22 No enemy will make him give forced payments, and wicked people will not defeat him. 23 I will crush his enemies in front of him; I will defeat those who hate him. 24 My loyalty and love will be with him. Through me he will be strong. 25 I will give him power over the sea and control over the rivers. 26 He will say to me, ‘You are my father, my God, the Rock, my Savior.' 27 I will make him my firstborn son, the greatest king on earth. 28 My love will watch over him forever, and my agreement with him will never end.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

My mercy will I keep for him for evermore,.... That is, for his mystical body, his church and people; for whom stores of mercy are kept with him, to be laid out in their regeneration, pardon, salvation, and eternal life; for to them the mercy of God is from everlasting to everlasting, Psalms 103:17, unless this is to be understood of the "grace" and "kindness" g of God, as the word may be rendered; his free favour and love to Christ, which always continues; for as he was always his dearly beloved Son, that lay in his bosom from eternity, so he continued, throughout his state, of humiliation, his well beloved, in whom he was well pleased, and still is, and ever will:

and my covenant shall stand fast with him; being made with him as the head and representative of his people, it remains, and will remain, sure, firm, and immoveable; its blessings are "sure mercies", and its promises are all "yea and amen in Christ": the stability of it, and of all that is in it, is owing to its being made with him, and being in his hands, who is the surety, Mediator, and messenger of it.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

My mercy will I keep for him for evermore - I will not withdraw my favor from him, nor from his posterity, Psalms 89:33-36. In him, and in his Great Descendant, the throne shall be established forever. This dominion will not be like the changing dynasties of this world, but will be perpetual and eternal.

And my covenant shall stand fast with him - See 2 Samuel 7:14-16; 2 Samuel 23:5. It shall be firm, or established with him and his family.
