Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. The Lord tends me as a shepherd, and I shall want nothing.

Nkunga Davidi. Yave niandi nsungi ama, ndilendi kambu kadi kima ko.

2 In a place of green grass, there he has made me dwell: he has nourished me by the water of rest.

Niandi wukuphundisanga muidi biti binlangu, Wukundatanga kuidi minlangu milembama.

3 He has restored my soul: he has guided me into the paths of righteousness, for his name's sake.

Niandi wunkindisanga muelꞌama. Niandi wukundiatisanga mu minsolo misonga mu diambu di dizina diandi.

4 Yea, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will not be afraid of evils: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, these have comforted me.

Ka diambu ko ndilenda diata mu ndimba tombi ki lufua, buna ndilendi mona mbimbi tsisi ko bila ngeyo widi yama. Nkawa aku ayi nti aku, biawu bi kumbombanga.

5 Thou has prepared a table before me in presence of them that afflict me: thou hast thoroughly anointed my head with oil; and thy cup cheers me like the best [wine].

Ngeyo wukubika meza va ntualꞌama va meso ma bambeni ziama. Ngeyo wuvinda ntuꞌama mafuta mbungu ama yilembo sapika.

6 Thy mercy also shall follow me all the days of my life: and my dwelling [shall be] in the house of the Lord for a very long time.

Bukiedika, mamboti maku ayi luzolo biela kundandakana mu bilumbu bioso bi luzingu luama. Ayi ndiela vuanda mu nzo Yave mu zithangu zioso.
