Halelu 133

1 A IA hoi, nani ka maikai a me ka oluolu, O ka noho lokahi pu ana o na hoahanau!

A Song of Degrees. See now! what is so good, or what so pleasant, as for brethren to dwell together?

2 Ua like ia me ka poni maikai ma ke poo, Ka mea i kahe ilalo ma ka umiumi, Ma ka umiumi hoi o Aarona, A hiki hoi ilalo i na kihi o kona mau aahu.

[It is] as ointment on the head, that ran down to the beard, [even] the beard of Aaron; that ran down to the fringe of his clothing.

3 Ua like ia me ka hau o Heremona, Ka mea i haule mai maluna o na mauna o Ziona; No ka mea, malaila no i kauoha mai ai o Iehova i ka hoomaikaiia, I ke ola hoi, a hiki i ka manawa pau ole.

As the dew of Aermon, that comes down on the mountains of Sion: for there, the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for ever.
