Hebrew Verse English
שִׁ֥יר הַֽמַּֽעֲל֗וֹת לְדָ֫וִ֥ד הִנֵּ֣ה מַה־טּ֖וֹב וּמַה־נָּעִ֑ים שֶׁ֖בֶת אַחִ֣ים גַּם־יָֽחַד׃ 1 The song of the ascents. By David. Look, how good and how right that brothers dwell—even together!
כַּשֶּׁ֚מֶן הַטּ֨וֹב עַל־הָרֹ֗אשׁ יֹרֵ֗ד עַל־הַזָּ֫קָ֥ן זְקַ֥ן־אַֽהֲרֹ֑ן שֶׁ֜יֹּרֵ֗ד עַל־פִּ֥י מִדּוֹתָֽיו׃ 2 [It is] like the valuable oil on the head, flowing down onto the beard, the beard of Aaron; which flows down onto the collar of his garments.
כְּטַ֥ל־חֶרְמ֗וֹן שֶׁיֹּרֵד֘ עַל־הַרְרֵ֪י צִ֫יּ֥וֹן כִּ֚י שָׁ֨ם׀ צִוָּ֣ה יְ֖הוָה אֶת־הַבְּרָכָ֑ה חַ֜יִּ֗ים עַד־הָֽעוֹלָֽם׃ 3 [It is] like the dew of Hermon, which flows down onto the hills of Zion. For there YHWH has sent the blessing—life everlasting.
