Psa 132:15-18 CSB  I will abundantly bless its food; I will satisfy its needy with bread.  (16)  I will clothe its priests with salvation, and its faithful people will shout for joy.  (17)  There I will make a horn grow for David; I have prepared a lamp for my anointed one.  (18)  I will clothe his enemies with shame, but the crown he wears will be glorious.”

Actually the Lord answers abundantly all that Solomon requests in this Psalm. There is the added promise of plentiful provisions and of bread for the poor. There is the promise that the priests will be clothed with salvation, not just with righteousness. There is the promise that the saints will shout aloud for joy. There is the promise that the enemies will be clothed with shame.

The meaning of verse 17 is that in Jerusalem God will make a powerful King to come forth from David and has prepared a lamp or Son for David, His Anointed. These promises of a perpetual dynasty are fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ.
