Psalms 23

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

Psalmus David. Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:

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

in loco pascuæ ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me:

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

animam meam convertit. Deduxit me super semitas iustitiæ, propter nomen suum.

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.

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

Parasti in conspectu meo mensam, adversus eos, qui tribulant me. Impinguasti in oleo caput meum: et calix meus inebrians quam præclarus est!

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.

Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitæ meæ: et ut inhabitem in domo Domini, in longitudinem dierum.
