Psalms 23

1 Yahweh, you [care for] me [like] a shepherd [cares for his sheep]. [So] I have everything that I need.

Zabura ta Dawuda. Ubangiji ne yake kiwona, ba zan rasa kome ba,

2 You [encourage] me [and give me peace]; [you are like a shepherd] who leads [his sheep] to places where there is plenty of green grass [for them to eat], and lets them rest beside streams where the water [is flowing] slowly.

Yakan sa in kwanta a makiyaya mai ɗanyar ciyawa, yakan bi da ni kusa da ruwaye marar hayaniya,

3 You renew my strength. You guide me along the roads that are the right ones [for me] in order that I can honor you.

yakan maido da raina. Yakan bi da ni a hanyoyin adalci saboda sunansa.

4 Even when I am walking through very dangerous dark ravines where I might be killed, I will not be afraid of anything because you are with me. You protect me [like a shepherd protects his sheep]. [He uses] his club and his walking stick [to protect them from being attacked by wild animals].

Ko da na yi tafiya ta kwari na inuwar mutuwa, ba zan ji tsoron mugu ba, gama kana tare da ni; bulalarka na dūka da kuma sandanka na tafiya, za su yi mini ta’aziyya.

5 You prepare a [great] feast for me, in a place where my enemies can see me. You [joyfully receive me], [as people joyfully receive the guests they have invited] [by] pouring [olive] oil over their heads. You have given me very many blessings!

Ka shirya mini tebur a gaban abokan gābana. Ka shafe kaina da mai; kwaf nawa ya cika har yana zuba.

6 I am certain that you will be good to me and act mercifully toward me as long as I live; and [then, O] Yahweh, I will live in your home [in heaven] forever.

Tabbatacce alheri da ƙauna za su bi dukan kwanakin raina, zan kuwa zauna a gidan Ubangiji har abada.
