Context of Psalms 22:30
28For dominion belongs to the LORD and He rules over the nations. 29All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him— even those unable to preserve their lives. Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation. 31They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn— all that He has done.
