Verse 6
6. Set my king The word rendered “set” (a different one from that so rendered Psalms 2:2) means to pour out, as a libation; also, to appoint, anoint. Furst renders it here, “ To appoint with a libation.” David was not anointed king upon Zion, but in Hebron; yet he was “ set,” or established, in Zion as by a new anointing. The Septuagint reads: “I have been made king by him upon Zion, his holy mountain.”
