There is no prophecy in the Hebrew Scriptures foretelling a "new David." Some scholars do read specific texts as foretelling the coming of a Messiah who will be a "Son of David." Other scholars read the same texts as referring to the nation of Israel itself.

Since the earliest Christian Epistles were written, Christian scholars have read the Hebrew Scriptures "through the lens" of the gospel. That means that Christians intentionally look for texts in the Torah, Prophets and Writings that can be understood as foretelling the coming of the Messiah, who in their view is Jesus Christ. Scholars of other faiths would understand the same texts quite differently.

The prophet Nathan, at 2 Samuel 7:16 alluded to this when he said that David's offspring would rule forever. Also various Psalms with various writers point to the line of David's kingship being unending but Psalm 86 in particular brings this out.
