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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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