Psalm 133:1–3 (ESV): Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!
It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes! It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the
mountains of Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forever more.
Ecclesiastes 7:2 It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of
feasting, for this is the end of all mankind, and the living will lay it to heart.
