Zaburi 23

1 Zaburi mar Daudi. Jehova Nyasaye e jakwadha, ok anachand gimoro.

A Psalm of David. The Lord directs me, and nothing will be lacking to me.

2 Omiyo ayweyo e lum mangʼich, otelona e aore mokwe,

He has settled me here, in a place of pasture. He has led me out to the water of refreshment.

3 odwogo chunya. Otaya e yore mag tim makare mondo nyinge oyud duongʼ.

He has converted my soul. He has led me away on the paths of justice, for the sake of his name.

4 Kata ka obedo ni awuotho e hoho mar tipo mar tho, to ok analuor gimoro marach, nimar in koda; ludhi gi odungani ema hoya.

For, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils. For you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they have given me consolation.

5 Iloso mesa e nyima ka wasika neno. Iwiro wiya gi mo; kikombena opongʼ moo oko.

You have prepared a table in my sight, opposite those who trouble me. You have anointed my head with oil, and my cup, which inebriates me, how brilliant it is!

6 Adier, ber gihera biro luwa ndalo duto mag ngimana, kendo abiro dak e od Jehova Nyasaye nyaka chiengʼ.

And your mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and so may I dwell in the house of the Lord for length of days.
