Psalms 23

1 A psalm of David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I will lack nothing.

Dawid dwom. Awurade ne me hwɛfo, hwee renhia me.

2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside tranquil water.

Ɔma meda wura frɔmfrɔm adidibea; ogya me kɔ nsu a ɛho dwo ho,

3 He brings back my life; he guides me along right paths for his name's sake.

odwudwo me kra. Ɔde me fa akwantrenee so, ne din nti.

4 Even though I walk through a valley of darkest shadow, I will not fear harm since you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me.

Sɛ menam owu sum kabii mu mpo a, minsuro bɔne bi, efisɛ wo ne me na ɛwɔ hɔ; wʼabaa ne wo pema na ɛkyekye me werɛ.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you have anointed my head with oil; my cup runs over.

Woto me pon wɔ mʼatamfo anim. Wode ngo fɔw me tirim; me kuruwa yɛ ma bu so.

6 Surely goodness and covenant faithfulness will pursue me all the days of my life; and I will live in the house of Yahweh for a very long time!

Yiye ne adɔe nko na ebedi mʼakyi me nkwanna nyinaa; na mɛtena Awurade fi daa.
