Psalm 133

This pſalme conteineth the commendacion of brotherlie amitie among the ſeruants of God.
¶ A ſong of degrees or Pſalme of Dauid.
1.BEholde, how good and how comelie a thĩg it is, brethren to dwell euen together.
2.It is like to the precious ointment vpon the head, that runneth downe vpon the beard, euen vnto Aarons beard, which wẽt downe on the border of his garments:
3.And as the dewe of Hermón, which falleth vpon the moũtaines of Zión: for there the Lord appointed the bleſsing & life for euer.
