Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah [is] my shepherd, I do not lack,

Se yon sòm David. Seyè a se gadò mwen, mwen p'ap janm manke anyen.

2 In pastures of tender grass He causeth me to lie down, By quiet waters He doth lead me.

Kote zèb yo pi bèl, se la li fè m' pran repo. Kote dlo a koule poze, se la li mennen m' bwè.

3 My soul He refresheth, He leadeth me in paths of righteousness, For His name's sake,

Li fè m' reprann fòs. Li fè m' mache nan chemen dwat, pou sa sèvi yon lwanj pou non li.

4 Also — when I walk in a valley of death-shade, I fear no evil, for Thou [art] with me, Thy rod and Thy staff — they comfort me.

Menm si m'ap pase nan yon ravin kote ki fè nwa anpil, mwen p'ap pè anyen, paske, Seyè, ou la avèk mwen. Se baton ou ak gòl ou ki fè kè m' pa kase.

5 Thou arrangest before me a table, Over-against my adversaries, Thou hast anointed with oil my head, My cup is full!

Ou pare yon tab pou mwen devan je tout lènmi m' yo. Ou resevwa m', ou fè kè m' kontan ou ban m' tou sa m' bezwen.

6 Only — goodness and kindness pursue me, All the days of my life, And my dwelling [is] in the house of Jehovah, For a length of days!

Wi, mwen konnen w'ap toujou renmen m', w'ap toujou bon pou mwen pandan tout lavi m'. Se lakay ou m'ap rete tout tan tout tan.
