David Stands on Zion While Kings Gather Below

Prompt

Psalm 2: The LORD's anointed king stands on his holy hill of Zion while the nations rage and the kings of the earth take counsel together against him. David, newly anointed king of Israel, stands large and central on the rocky summit of Zion in his royal tunic and mantle with a simple gold circlet on his head, his hand resting calmly on his sheathed sword and his face serene and confident, looking out over the land. Far below in the plain, the tents and banners of hostile kings gather in a restless camp, small and distant. Bright morning sun breaks through clouds behind him and falls on the hilltop. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
