Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. The Lord directs me, and nothing will be lacking to me.

psalmus David Dominus reget me et nihil mihi deerit

2 He has settled me here, in a place of pasture. He has led me out to the water of refreshment.

in loco pascuae ibi me conlocavit super aquam refectionis educavit me

3 He has converted my soul. He has led me away on the paths of justice, for the sake of his name.

animam meam convertit deduxit me super semitas iustitiae propter nomen suum

4 For, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils. For you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they have given me consolation.

nam et si ambulavero in medio umbrae mortis non timebo mala quoniam tu mecum es virga tua et baculus tuus ipsa me consolata sunt

5 You have prepared a table in my sight, opposite those who trouble me. You have anointed my head with oil, and my cup, which inebriates me, how brilliant it is!

parasti in conspectu meo mensam adversus eos qui tribulant me inpinguasti in oleo caput meum et calix meus inebrians quam praeclarus est

6 And your mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and so may I dwell in the house of the Lord for length of days.

et misericordia tua subsequitur me omnibus diebus vitae meae et ut inhabitem in domo Domini in longitudinem dierum
