Zaburi 23

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

A psalm of David. Since the Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need.

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

He gives me rest in green fields. He leads me towards quietly flowing streams.

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

He revives me. He guides me along the right paths because that's the kind of person he is.

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.

Even when I walk through the valley dark as death, I'm not afraid of any evil, because you are right there with me; your rod and your staff protect me.

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

You prepare a banquet for me before my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with olive oil. My cup is so full it overflows!

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

I'm absolutely certain that your goodness and trustworthy love will be with me all through my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.
