Old Testament
Psalms 133
World English Bible
Overview
A brief wisdom hymn celebrating the goodness and beauty of God's people living together in unity. Two vivid images carry the theme: precious oil running down Aaron's beard and onto his robes, and the dew of Hermon falling on Mount Zion. The psalm closes by declaring that there, in such unity, the LORD commands the blessing of life forevermore.
1A Song of Ascents. By David. See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity!
2It is like the precious oil on the head, that ran down on the beard, even Aaron’s beard, that came down on the edge of his robes,
3like the dew of Hermon, that comes down on the hills of Zion; for there Yahweh gives the blessing, even life forever more.
