The Book of Psalms

Psalm 133

The Blessing and Harmony of Living in Unity

A Song of Ascents. A Psalm of David.

1HOW good and pleasant it is
when brothers live together in unity!

2 It is like the precious oil poured on the head,
running down on the beard, the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes. 3 It is as if the dew of Hermon
were falling on the mountains of Zion. For there the LORD ordains the blessing—
even life forevermore.
