< Psalms 23 >
1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Psalmus David. Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters.
in loco pascuæ ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me:
3 He restoreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
animam meam convertit. Deduxit me super semitas iustitiæ, propter nomen suum.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art 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 preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup runneth 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 lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.
Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitæ meæ: et ut inhabitem in domo Domini, in longitudinem dierum.
