Sòm 23

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

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

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

He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.

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

He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name.

4 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.

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.

5 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.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

6 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.

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
