1 How wonderful, how beautiful, when brothers and sisters get along!
1
<<A Song of Ascents. By David.>> See how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to live together in unity!
2 It's like costly anointing oil flowing down head and beard, Flowing down Aaron's beard, flowing down the collar of his priestly robes.
2
It is like the precious oil on the head, That ran down on the beard, Even Aaron's beard; That came down on the edge of his robes;
3 It's like the dew on Mount Hermon flowing down the slopes of Zion. Yes, that's where God commands the blessing, ordains eternal life.
3
Like the dew of Hermon, That comes down on the hills of Zion: For there Yahweh gives the blessing, Even life forevermore.
