Psalms 23

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

Dawid dwom. Awurade ne me hwɛfo, hwee renhia me.

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

Ɔma meda wira frɔmfrɔm adidibea mu; ɔgya me kɔ nsuo a ɛho dwoɔ ho,

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

ɔdwodwo me kra. Ɔde me fa akwantenenee so, ne din enti.

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.

Sɛ menam owuo sum kabii mu mpo a, mensuro bɔne bi, ɛfiri sɛ, wo ne me na ɛwɔ hɔ; wʼabaa ne wo poma na ɛkyekyere me werɛ.

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.

Woto me ɛpono wɔ mʼatamfoɔ anim. Wode ngo afɔ me tirim; me kuruwa ayɛ ma abu so.

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.

Yie ne adɔeɛ nko na ɛbɛdi mʼakyi me nkwa nna nyinaa; na mɛtena Awurade fie daa.
