Psalm 133

English Standard Version

from Crossway
1 Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity![1] (Ge 13:8; Heb 13:1) 2 It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes! (Ex 28:32; Ex 28:33; Ex 29:7; Ex 30:25; Ex 30:30; Ex 39:23; Ex 39:24; Le 8:12; Job 30:18) 3 It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore. (Le 25:21; De 3:9; De 4:48; De 28:8; Ps 42:8; Ps 48:1; Pr 19:12; Mic 5:7)

Psalm 133

King James Version

1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! 2 It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron' beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments; 3 As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the LORD commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Psalm 133

New International Version

from Biblica
1 How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity! 2 It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron’s beard, down on the collar of his robe. 3 It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion. For there the Lord bestows his blessing, even life for evermore.
