Psalms 132:18

His enemies will I clothe with shame -They shall be so confounded that shame shall seem to cover them as a garment. See the notes atPsalms 109:29. That is, David would be triumphant. But upon himself shall his crown flourish -His crown shall be as a fresh, blooming garland. The Hebrew word used here may mean either to glitter, or to flower, to fiourish or bloom. As applied to a crown, it may mean either that it would sparkle or glitter, as set with precious stones - or (under the idea of a garland) it may mean that it would appear to bloom or blossom. In either case it denotes success, joy, triumph - and is a promise of prosperity to David as a king.
