Psalms 23

1 [A Psalm by David.] Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not lack.

Gospod je moj pastir, ne bom trpel pomanjkanja.

2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.

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

3 He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

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

4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, 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 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup overflows.

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

6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Jehovah's house forever.

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