16I will surely bless her provisions, *
and satisfy her poor with bread.

17I will clothe her priests with salvation, *
and her faithful people will rejoice and sing.

18There will I make the horn of David flourish; *
I have prepared a lamp for my Anointed.

19As for his enemies, I will clothe them with shame; *
but as for him, his crown will shine.”

133Ecce, quam bonum!

1Oh, how good and pleasant it is, *
when brethren live together in unity!

2It is like fine oil upon the head *
that runs down upon the beard,

3Upon the beard of Aaron, *
and runs down upon the collar of his robe.

4It is like the dew of Hermon *
that falls upon the hills of Zion.

5For there the Lord has ordained the blessing: *
life for evermore.

134Ecce nunc

1Behold now, bless the Lord, all you servants of the Lord, *
you that stand by night in the house of the Lord.

2Lift up your hands in the holy place and bless the Lord; *
the Lord who made heaven and earth bless you out of Zion.

Psalms 133, 134787
