Psalm 133

New International Reader’s Version

A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. A psalm of David.

1 How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in peace! 2 It’s like the special olive oil that was poured on Aaron’s head. It ran down on his beard and on the collar of his robe. 3 It’s as if the dew of Mount Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. There the LORD gives his blessing. He gives life that never ends.
