Psalms 23

1 A Psalm. Of David. The Lord takes care of me as his sheep; I will not be without any good thing.

Thaburi ya Daudi Jehova nĩwe mũrĩithi wakwa, ndirĩ kĩndũ ingĩaga.

2 He makes a resting-place for me in the green fields: he is my guide by the quiet waters.

Atũmaga njarahe ũrĩithio-inĩ ũrĩ nyeki nduru, aandongoragia maaĩ-inĩ marĩ na ũhurũko.

3 He gives new life to my soul: he is my guide in the ways of righteousness because of his name.

Nĩariũkagia ngoro yakwa, akandongoragia njĩra-inĩ cia ũthingu, nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩake.

4 Yes, though I go through the valley of deep shade, I will have no fear of evil; for you are with me, your rod and your support are my comfort.

O na ingĩtuĩka ndĩrahungurĩra mũkuru ũrĩ nduma ta ya gĩkuũ, ndirĩ ũũru ingĩĩtigĩra, nĩgũkorwo ũrĩ hamwe na niĩ; thiarĩ waku na mũthĩgi waku nĩciihooreragia.

5 You make ready a table for me in front of my haters: you put oil on my head; my cup is overflowing.

Ũnjaragĩra metha mbere yakwa o harĩa thũ ciakwa irĩ. Ũnjitagĩrĩria maguta mũtwe; gĩkombe gĩakwa nĩkĩiyũrĩrĩire.

6 Truly, blessing and mercy will be with me all the days of my life; and I will have a place in the house of the Lord all my days.

Ti-itherũ wega na wendani nĩirĩrũmanagĩrĩra na niĩ matukũ mothe ma muoyo wakwa, na niĩ ngũtũũra nyũmba ya Jehova nginya tene.
