Psalms 23

1 A Psalme of David. The Lord is my shepheard, I shall not want.

Gospod je moj pastir, ne bom trpel pomanjkanja.

2 He maketh me to rest in greene pasture, and leadeth me by the still waters.

Napravlja mi, da se zleknem na zelenih pašnikih. Vodi me ob mirnih vodah.

3 He restoreth my soule, and leadeth me in the paths of righteousnesse for his Names sake.

Mojo dušo obnavlja. Zaradi svojega imena me vodi po stezah pravičnosti.

4 Yea, though I should walke through the valley of the shadowe of death, I will feare no euill: for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staffe, they comfort me.

Da, čeprav hodim skozi dolino smrtne sence, se ne bom bal nobenega zla, kajti ti si z menoj; tvoja šiba in tvoja opora me tolažita.

5 Thou doest prepare a table before me in the sight of mine aduersaries: thou doest anoynt mine head with oyle, and my cuppe runneth ouer.

Pred menoj pripravljaš mizo, v prisotnosti mojih sovražnikov. Mojo glavo maziliš z oljem, moja čaša prekipeva.

6 Doubtlesse kindnesse and mercie shall follow me all the dayes of my life, and I shall remaine a long season in the house of the Lord.

Zagotovo me bosta dobrota in usmiljenje spremljali vse dni mojega življenja, in v Gospodovi hiši bom prebival na veke.
