A Song of Ascents. By David.

1 See how good and how pleasant it is

for brothers to live together in unity!

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 like the dew of Hermon,

that comes down on the hills of Zion;

for there Yahweh gives the blessing,

even life forever more.

1 שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלֹות לְדָוִד הִנֵּה מַה־טֹּוב וּמַה־נָּעִים שֶׁבֶת אַחִים גַּם־יָחַד׃

2 כַּשֶּׁמֶן הַטֹּוב ׀ עַל־הָרֹאשׁ יֹרֵד עַל־הַזָּקָן זְקַן־אַהֲרֹן יֹּרֵד עַל־פִּי מִדֹּותָיו׃

3 כְּטַל־חֶרְמֹון שֶׁיֹּרֵד עַל־הַרְרֵי צִיֹּון כִּי שָׁם ׀ צִוָּה יְהוָה אֶת־הַבְּרָכָה חַיִּים עַד־הָעֹולָם׃
