ThomsonO LORD, remember David, and all his meek humility;
BrentonA Song of Degrees. See now! what is so good, or what so pleasant, as for brethren to dwell together?
GreekὨδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. Ἰδοὺ δὴ τί καλὸν, ἢ τί τερπνὸν, ἀλλʼ ἢ τὸ κατοικεῖν ἀδελφοὺς ἐπιτοαυτό;
2
Thomsonhow he swore to the Lord, and made his vow to the God of Jacob:
BrentonIt is as ointment on the head, that ran down to the beard, even the beard of Aaron; that ran down to the fringe of his clothing.
GreekὩς μῦρον ἐπὶ κεφαλῆς τὸ καταβαῖνον ἐπὶ πώγωνα, τὸν πώγωνα τὸν Ἀαρὼν, τὸ καταβαῖνον ἐπὶ τὴν ὦαν τοῦ ἐνδύματος αὐτοῦ.
3
ThomsonI will not enter the lodging of my house, nor go up to my bed of rest;
BrentonAs the dew of Aermon, that comes down on the mountains of Sion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for ever.
GreekὩς δρόσος Ἀερμῶν ὁ καταβαίνουσα ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη Σιών· ὅτι ἐκεῖ ἐνετείλατο Κύριος τὴν εὐλογίαν, ζωὴν ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος.
