Psalms 23

1 A psalm for David. The Lord ruleth me: and I shall want nothing.

Kathutkung: Devit BAWIPA teh kaie tukhoumkung lah ao dawkvah, voutthoup hoi kaawm mahoeh.

2 He hath set me in a place of pasture. He hath brought me up, on the water of refreshment:

Pho kahring um vah na tabo sak teh, kâhatnae tui teng vah na hrawi.

3 He hath converted my soul. He hath led me on the paths of justice, for his own name’s sake.

Ka hringnae a katha sak teh, amae min lahoi lannae lam dawk na hrawi.

4 For though I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils, for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they have comforted me.

Duenae tâhlip ravo dawk ka cet nakunghai, yawthoenae hai ka taket mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kai koevah nang na o, na sonron hoi na tahroe ni ka lung na mawng sak.

5 Thou hast prepared a table before me against them that afflict me. Thou hast anointed my head with oil; and my chalice which inebriateth me, how goodly is it!

Ka tarannaw hmalah rawca na poe, ka lû dawk satui na awi teh, kaie manang teh poum lah a poum.

6 And thy mercy will follow me all the days of my life. And that I may dwell in the house of the Lord unto length of days.

Ka hring nathung lungmanae hoi hawinae ni na kâbang sin vaiteh, BAWIPA im dawk a yungyoe ka o han.
