< Psalms 23 >
1 Jehovah is my shepherd, I shall not want.
Psalmus David. Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
in loco pascuæ ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me:
3 He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
animam meam convertit. Deduxit me super semitas iustitiæ, propter nomen suum.
4 Yea, tho I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou are with me, thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Nam, et si ambulavero in medio umbræ mortis, non timebo mala: quoniam tu mecum es. Virga tua, et baculus tuus: ipsa me consolata sunt.
5 Thou prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. Thou have anointed my head with oil. My cup runs over.
Parasti in conspectu meo mensam, adversus eos, qui tribulant me. Impinguasti in oleo caput meum: et calix meus inebrians quam præclarus est!
6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah forever.
Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitæ meæ: et ut inhabitem in domo Domini, in longitudinem dierum.
