I thought this was a prophecy of the Christ until it reads “if he commit iniquity” and I did not understand as Christ would be sinless. In a commentary Keil & Delitzsch it reads: “It is very obvious, from all the separate details of this promise, that it related primarily to Solomon, and had a certain fulfilment in him and his reign. On the death of David, his son Solomon ascended the throne, and God defended his kingdom against the machinations of Adonijah (1Ki 2:12); so that Solomon was able to say, “The Lord hath fulfilled His word that He spoke; for I have risen up in the stead of my father David,” etc. ”
I understand it now as a prophecy referring to to a succession of heirs and not just one man at one time. Bible is fascinating.
