Zaburi 23

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

“A psalm of David.” The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

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

In pastures of tender grass he causeth me to lie down: beside still waters he leadeth me.

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

My soul he refresheth: he guideth me in the tracks of righteousness 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.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear evil; for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staff—they indeed comfort me.

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

Thou preparest before me a table in the presence of my assailants; thou anointest with oil my head: my cup overfloweth.

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

Surely, only goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life: and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord to the utmost length of days.
