Psalm 133

 Psalm 133

1 Behold how good and pleasant it is

to dwell together in unity.

2 It is like the precious oil upon the head,

running down upon the beard,

3 Even on Aaron’s beard,

running down upon the collar of his clothing.

4 It is like the dew of Hermon

running down upon the hills of Zion.

5 For there the Lord has promised his blessing:

even life for evermore.

Psalm 104 for Sunday 7th February 2021

  Psalm 104 verses 26-33 26  O Lord, how manifold are your works!
