Psalms 23

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

Se yon sòm David. Seyè a se gadò mwen, mwen p'ap janm manke anyen.

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

Kote zèb yo pi bèl, se la li fè m' pran repo. Kote dlo a koule poze, se la li mennen m' bwè.

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

Li fè m' reprann fòs. Li fè m' mache nan chemen dwat, pou sa sèvi yon lwanj pou non li.

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.

Menm si m'ap pase nan yon ravin kote ki fè nwa anpil, mwen p'ap pè anyen, paske, Seyè, ou la avèk mwen. Se baton ou ak gòl ou ki fè kè m' pa kase.

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!

Ou pare yon tab pou mwen devan je tout lènmi m' yo. Ou resevwa m', ou fè kè m' kontan ou ban m' tou sa m' bezwen.

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.

Wi, mwen konnen w'ap toujou renmen m', w'ap toujou bon pou mwen pandan tout lavi m'. Se lakay ou m'ap rete tout tan tout tan.
