Psalms 23

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

El Señor es mi Pastor; Nada me faltará.

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.

Él me hace un lugar de descanso en los campos verdes: él es mi guía junto a las aguas tranquilas.

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.

Él me da nuevas fuerzas: él es mi guía en los caminos de la justicia haciendo honor de su nombre.

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].

Sí, aunque atraviese el valle de la sombra de muerte. no temeré el mal; porque tú estás conmigo, tu vara y tu cayado me infundirán confianza.

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!

Tu preparas un banquete para mí frente a mis enemigos: unges con aceite mi cabeza; mi taza se está desbordando.

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.

Verdaderamente, la bendición y la misericordia estarán conmigo todos los días de mi vida; y moraré en la casa del Señor todos mis días.
