Psalmi 23

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

“A psalm of David.” The LORD is my shepherd: I shall not want.

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

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.

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

He reviveth my soul; He leadeth me in paths of safety, For his 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.

When I walk through a valley of deathlike shade, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy crook and thy staff, they comfort me.

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

Thou preparest a table before me In the presence of mine enemies. Thou anointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

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

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, And I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
