< Psalms 23 >
1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah [is] my shepherd, I do not lack,
ヱホバは我が牧者なり われ乏しきことあらじ
2 In pastures of tender grass He causeth me to lie down, By quiet waters He doth lead me.
ヱホバは我をみどりの野にふさせ いこひの水濱にともなひたまふ
3 My soul He refresheth, He leadeth me in paths of righteousness, For His name's sake,
ヱホバはわが霊魂をいかし名のゆゑをもて我をただしき路にみちびき給ふ
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.
たとひわれ死のかげの谷をあゆむとも禍害をおそれじ なんぢ我とともに在せばなり なんぢの笞なんぢの杖われを慰む
5 Thou arrangest before me a table, Over-against my adversaries, Thou hast anointed with oil my head, My cup is full!
なんぢわが仇のまへに我がために筵をまうけ わが首にあぶらをそそぎたまふ わが酒杯はあふるるなり
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!
わが世にあらん限りはかならず恩惠と憐憫とわれにそひきたらん 我はとこしへにヱホバの宮にすまん
