majesty
megalosune denotes the majesty named in heavenly enthronement language and assigned to God in praise.

Majesty in enthronement and praise · dominant
The genitive singular forms occur in enthronement clauses: in Hebrews 1:3 the APB renders “sat down at the right of the Majesty on high,” and in Hebrews 8:1 it renders “at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens.” The nominative singular in Jude 1:25 stands in the list of glory, majesty, power, and authority said to belong to God.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly uses “Majesty” in all three verses: in two enthronement phrases and once in a list of what belongs to God. These renderings confirm the clauses' presentation rather than establish a finer distinction.
