Psalms 133 DBY

Summary: A brief Song of Ascents attributed to David, celebrating communal harmony: "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" (v. 1). It illustrates this unity with two striking images — precious oil poured on Aaron's head and running down his beard onto his garments, and dew from Mount Hermon falling on the mountains of Zion (v. 2-3) — both signifying abundant blessing flowing outward. It closes noting that it was there, in that unity, that "the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore" (v. 3).

1A Song of degrees. Of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

2Like the precious oil upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, upon Aaron's beard, that ran down to the hem of his garments;

3As the dew of Hermon that descendeth on the mountains of Zion; for there hath Jehovah commanded the blessing, life for evermore.
