Psalms 23

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

Saamu ti Dafidi. Olúwa ni olùṣọ́ èmi àgùntàn rẹ̀, èmi kì yóò ṣe aláìní.

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

Ó mú mi dùbúlẹ̀ sí ibi pápá oko tútù, Ó mú mi lọ sí ibi omi dídákẹ́ rọ́rọ́,

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

Ó mú ọkàn mi padà bọ̀ sípò. Ó mú mi lọ sí ọ̀nà òdodo nítorí orúkọ rẹ̀.

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.

Bí mo tilẹ̀ ń rìn láàrín àfonífojì òjìji ikú, èmi kì yóò bẹ̀rù ibi kan, nítorí ìwọ wà pẹ̀lú mi; ọ̀gọ rẹ àti ọ̀pá à rẹ, wọ́n ń tù mí nínú.

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!

Ìwọ tẹ́ tábìlì oúnjẹ sílẹ̀ níwájú mi ní ojú àwọn ọ̀tá à mi. Ìwọ ta òróró sí mi ní orí; ago mí sì kún àkúnwọ́sílẹ̀.

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.

Nítòótọ́, ìre àti àánú ni yóò máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn ní ọjọ́ ayé è mi gbogbo, èmi yóò sì máa gbé inú ilé Olúwa títí láéláé.
