Psalms 133

Unity
A song of the stairway by King David
1How truly wonderful and delightful it is
to see brothers and sisters living together in sweet unity! # 133:1 This specifically speaks to the tribes of Israel that live in harmony, but it also applies to believers today. Nothing can be sweeter than the love of Christ we share with one another.
2It’s as precious as the sacred scented oil
flowing from the head of the high priest Aaron,
dripping down upon his beard and running all the way down
to the hem of his priestly robes. # 133:2 Or “running down the collar of his robe.”
3This harmony can be compared to the dew
dripping from Mount Hermon,
which flows down upon the hills of Zion.
Indeed, that is where Yahweh has decreed his blessings
will be found, the promise of life forevermore!
