Psalms 23

1 “A psalm of David.” The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

Dāvida dziesma. Tas Kungs ir mans gans, man netrūks nenieka.

2 In pastures of tender grass he causeth me to lie down: beside still waters he leadeth me.

Viņš man liek ganīties uz zālainām ganībām, Viņš mani vada pie palēna ūdens.

3 My soul he refresheth: he guideth me in the tracks of righteousness for the sake of his name.

Viņš atspirdzina manu dvēseli, Viņš mani ved uz taisnības ceļiem Sava Vārda dēļ.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear evil; for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staff—they indeed comfort me.

Jebšu es arī staigātu nāves ēnas ielejā, taču ļaunuma nebīstos; jo Tu esi pie manis, Tavs koks(ganu vēzda) un Tavs zizlis mani iepriecina.

5 Thou preparest before me a table in the presence of my assailants; thou anointest with oil my head: my cup overfloweth.

Tu sataisi manā priekšā galdu pret maniem ienaidniekiem, Tu svaidi manu galvu ar eļļu, mans biķeris ir papilnam pieliets.

6 Surely, only goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life: and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord to the utmost length of days.

Tiešām, labums un žēlastība mani pavadīs visu manu mūžu, un es palikšu Tā Kunga namā vienmēr.
