Psalmi 23

1 Psalam. Davidov. Jahve je pastir moj: ni u čem ja ne oskudijevam;

A psalm for David. The Lord ruleth me: and I shall want nothing.

2 na poljanama zelenim on mi daje odmora. Na vrutke me tihane vodi

He hath set me in a place of pasture. He hath brought me up, on the water of refreshment:

3 i krijepi dušu moju. Stazama pravim on me upravlja radi imena svojega.

He hath converted my soul. He hath led me on the paths of justice, for his own name’s sake.

4 Pa da mi je i dolinom smrti proći, zla se ne bojim, jer si ti sa mnom. Tvoj štap i palica tvoja utjeha su meni.

For though I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils, for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they have comforted me.

5 Trpezu preda mnom prostireš na oči dušmanima mojim. Uljem mi glavu mažeš, čaša se moja prelijeva.

Thou hast prepared a table before me against them that afflict me. Thou hast anointed my head with oil; and my chalice which inebriateth me, how goodly is it!

6 Dobrota i milost pratit će mene sve dane života moga. U Jahvinu ću domu prebivati kroz dane mnoge.

And thy mercy will follow me all the days of my life. And that I may dwell in the house of the Lord unto length of days.
