Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. The LORD [is] my shepherd; I shall not want.

Salimo la Davide. Yehova ndiye mʼbusa wanga, sindidzasowa kanthu.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

Amandigoneka pa msipu wobiriwira, amanditsogolera ku madzi akumwa abwino,

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

amatsitsimutsa moyo wanga. Amanditsogolera mʼnjira zachilungamo chifukwa cha dzina lake.

4 Yes, though I walk through the valley of the shades of death, I will fear no evil: for thou [art] with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Ngakhale ndiyende mʼchigwa cha mdima wakuda bii, sindidzaopa choyipa, pakuti Inu muli ndi ine; chibonga chanu ndi ndodo yanu zimanditonthoza.

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

Mumandikonzera chakudya adani anga akuona. Mumadzoza mutu wanga ndi mafuta; chikho changa chimasefukira.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Zoonadi, zokoma ndi chikondi chosasinthika zidzanditsata masiku onse a moyo wanga, ndipo ndidzakhala mʼNyumba ya Yehova kwamuyaya.
