« | Psalm 133 | » |
1 A song of David for going up to the Temple. Oh, how wonderful, how pleasing it is when God's people all come together as one!
2 It is like the sweet-smelling oil that is poured over the high priest's head, that runs down his beard flowing over his robes.
3 It is like a gentle rain from Mount Hermon falling on Mount Zion. It is there that the Lord has promised his blessing of eternal life.
