Psalms 23

1 A Psalm by David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing.

Nkunga Davidi. Yave niandi nsungi ama, ndilendi kambu kadi kima ko.

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

Niandi wukuphundisanga muidi biti binlangu, Wukundatanga kuidi minlangu milembama.

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

Niandi wunkindisanga muelꞌama. Niandi wukundiatisanga mu minsolo misonga mu diambu di dizina diandi.

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.

Ka diambu ko ndilenda diata mu ndimba tombi ki lufua, buna ndilendi mona mbimbi tsisi ko bila ngeyo widi yama. Nkawa aku ayi nti aku, biawu bi kumbombanga.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.

Ngeyo wukubika meza va ntualꞌama va meso ma bambeni ziama. Ngeyo wuvinda ntuꞌama mafuta mbungu ama yilembo sapika.

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

Bukiedika, mamboti maku ayi luzolo biela kundandakana mu bilumbu bioso bi luzingu luama. Ayi ndiela vuanda mu nzo Yave mu zithangu zioso.
