Tingtoeng 23

1 David kah Tingtoenglung BOEIPA loh kai n'dawn dongah, m'vaitah mahpawh.

A Psalm by David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing.

2 Toitlim annoe ah kai n'kol sak tih, duemnah tui taengla kai n'khool.

He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.

3 Ka hinglu han thoelh tih, amah ming ham duengnah namtlak ah kai m'mawt

He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 Dueknah hlipkhup kolrhawk ah ka caeh vaengah pataeng, nang loh namah kah mancai neh kai nan om puei tih, na conghol loh kai n'hloep dongah yoethaenah khaw ka rhih pawh.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

5 Kai aka daengdaeh hmaiah pataeng, kai mikhmuh ah caboei nan tawn. Ka lu he situi neh na men sak tih, ka boengloeng he a coihdanah om.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.

6 Ka hingnah tue puet te, hnothen neh sitlohnah bueng loh kai n'hloem saeh lamtah, BOEIPA im ah khohnin takuem kho ka sa eh.

Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
