< Psalms 133 >
1 It is very good and very pleasant for God’s people to gather together harmoniously.
A SONG OF THE ASCENTS. BY DAVID. Behold, how good and how pleasant The dwelling of brothers—even together!
2 It is [as delightful as] the precious/expensive ([olive] oil/perfume) that runs down from [the Supreme Priest] Aaron’s head onto his beard [when he is anointed] and runs down onto the collar of his robes.
As the good oil on the head, Coming down on the beard, the beard of Aaron, That comes down on the skirt of his robes,
3 Gathering together harmoniously [is as delightful] as the dew [that falls] on Hermon [Mountain] and the dew that falls on the hills near Zion [Hill]. Yahweh has promised to bless [his people there in Jerusalem] [by giving them] everlasting (OR, a long-lasting) life.
As dew of Hermon—That comes down on hills of Zion, For there YHWH commanded the blessing—Life for all time!
