The Excellency of Brotherly Unity.

A Song of Ascents, of David.

133 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For (A)brothers to live together in unity!
It is like the precious (B)oil on the head,
Running down upon the beard,
As on Aaron’s beard,
The oil which ran down upon the (C)edge of his robes.
It is like the (D)dew of (E)Hermon
Coming down upon the (F)mountains of Zion;
For the Lord (G)commanded the blessing there—(H)life forever.

Excelencia del amor fraternal

Cántico de ascenso gradual[a]; de David.

133 Mirad cuán bueno y cuán agradable es
que los hermanos habiten juntos en armonía[b](A).
Es como el óleo precioso sobre la cabeza(B),
el cual desciende sobre la barba,
la barba de Aarón,
que desciende hasta el borde de sus vestiduras(C).
Es como el rocío(D) de Hermón(E),
que desciende sobre los montes de Sión(F);
porque allí mandó el Señor la bendición(G), la vida para siempre(H).

Psalm 133

A song of ascents. Of David.

How good and pleasant it is
    when God’s people live together(A) in unity!(B)

It is like precious oil poured on the head,(C)
    running down on the beard,
running down on Aaron’s beard,
    down on the collar of his robe.
It is as if the dew(D) of Hermon(E)
    were falling on Mount Zion.(F)
For there the Lord bestows his blessing,(G)
    even life forevermore.(H)
