Ps. 132:18      Ps. 133:2

Psalms 133:1

See how good and pleasant (beautiful) it is
for brothers (relatives, countrymen) who dwell (live together; literally: sit – Hebr. shevet)
in unity (united) [who are in agreement; have no internal disputes].
[Brothers is Hebr. achim, literally blood brothers (first used of Cain and Abel, see Gen. 4:2), but also used for relatives, extended family, and by extension also villages and communities. In Gen. 13:5–8 there is the first example where scarce resources are causing conflict in a family. Abraham then exclaims to his nephew Lot: "Let there be no strife between you and me, or between my herdsmen and yours. We are of the same family (achim)," see Gen. 13:8. A similar conflict also arises in Gen. 36:6–7.]
