Psalms 132:14

12 If your sons keep My covenant and the testimony I will teach them, then their sons will also sit on your throne forever and ever.”

13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His home:

“This is My resting place forever and ever; here I will dwell, for I have desired this home.

15 I will bless her with abundant provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread.

16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints will sing out in joy.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
