Psalms 133

1 It is very good and very pleasant for God’s people to gather together harmoniously.

Ein Stufenlied, von David. - Wie lieblich ist's, wie schön, - schaut nur! - wenn Brüder beieinander bleiben!

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.

Wie köstlich Salböl von dem Haupt herabließt auf den Bart und wie der Aaronsbart auf des Gewandes Borte niederwallt

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.

und wie der Tau des Hermon auf dürre Bergesteile niederströmt, so spendet Segen dort der Herr, ein Leben bis in Ewigkeit.
