The easiest way is to set both the computer and the device to share Contacts over iCloud:


Change your iCloud feature settings [iOS and Mac] - https://support.apple.com/HT207689 - "'When you turn off an iCloud feature on a device, information stored only in iCloud for that feature is no longer available on the device. If you turn off Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Notes, Reminders, or iCloud Photos on just one device, you can still view and change your information on iCloud.com and on another device you set up for that feature."


On your computer your iCloud settings are in the apple at the top left > System Preferences > iCloud


Keep your contacts up to date on all of your devices with iCloud - https://support.apple.com/HT205754



Alternatively you can sync using Music/Finder or iTunes, depending upon the system version you are using.
