Psalms 23

1 Yhwh is my shepherd; I shall not want.

Zaburi ya Daudi. Bwana ndiye mchungaji wangu, sitapungukiwa na kitu.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

Hunilaza katika malisho ya majani mabichi, kando ya maji matulivu huniongoza,

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

hunihuisha nafsi yangu. Huniongoza katika njia za haki kwa ajili ya jina lake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Hata kama nikipita katikati ya bonde la uvuli wa mauti, sitaogopa mabaya, kwa maana wewe upo pamoja nami; fimbo yako na mkongojo wako vyanifariji.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Waandaa meza mbele yangu machoni pa adui zangu. Umenipaka mafuta kichwani pangu, kikombe changu kinafurika.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of Yhwh for ever.

Hakika wema na upendo vitanifuata siku zote za maisha yangu, nami nitakaa nyumbani mwa Bwana milele.
