11 En verdad juró Jehová á David, no se apartará de ellos: Del fruto de tu vientre pondré sobre tu trono.
11 Yahweh has sworn to David in truth. He will not turn from it: “I will set the fruit of your body on your throne.

16 I will also clothe her priests with salvation. Her saints will shout aloud for joy.
17 I will make the line of David even more powerful. I have prepared a lamp for my chosen king.
17 Allí haré reverdecer el cuerno de David: he prevenido lámpara á mi ungido.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
In this Psalm, the humility of one that is a servant of God and faithful is commended unto us, by whose voice it is sung; which is the whole body of Christ.

For you find God in the Psalms saying to David, "Of the fruit of thy body will I set upon thy seat." Here then He is the Son of David.
