Psalm 133
New International Version

Psalm 133

A song of ascents. Of David.

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

2 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.
3 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)

Common English Bible

Psalm 133

A pilgrimage song. Of David.

133 Look at how good and pleasing it is
    when families[a] live together as one!
2 It is like expensive oil poured over the head,
    running down onto the beard—
        Aaron’s beard!—
    which extended over the collar of his robes.
3 It is like the dew on Mount Hermon
    streaming down onto the mountains of Zion,
    because it is there that the Lord has commanded the blessing:
        everlasting life.

Blessed Unity of the People of God

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

133 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is
For (A)brethren to dwell together in unity!

The beard of Aaron,
Running down on the edge of his garments.

Descending upon the mountains of Zion;
For (C)there the Lord commanded the blessing—
Life forevermore.
