Psalms 133

1¶ A song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity! 2It is like the precious ointment on the head, that ran down on the beard, even Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; 3As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended on the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for ever more.
