Zabura 23

1 Zabura ta Dawuda. Ubangiji ne yake kiwona, ba zan rasa kome ba,

A psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd: I am never in need.

2 Yakan sa in kwanta a makiyaya mai ɗanyar ciyawa, yakan bi da ni kusa da ruwaye marar hayaniya,

He lays me down in green pastures. He gently leads me to waters of rest,

3 yakan maido da raina. Yakan bi da ni a hanyoyin adalci saboda sunansa.

he refreshes my life. He guides me along paths that are straight, true to his name.

4 Ko da na yi tafiya ta kwari na inuwar mutuwa, ba zan ji tsoron mugu ba, gama kana tare da ni; bulalarka na dūka da kuma sandanka na tafiya, za su yi mini ta’aziyya.

And when my way lies through a valley of gloom, I fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff comfort me.

5 Ka shirya mini tebur a gaban abokan gābana. Ka shafe kaina da mai; kwaf nawa ya cika har yana zuba.

You spread a table for me in face of my foes; with oil you anoint my head, and my cup runs over.

6 Tabbatacce alheri da ƙauna za su bi dukan kwanakin raina, zan kuwa zauna a gidan Ubangiji har abada.

Surely goodness and love will pursue me – all the days of my life. In the house of the Lord I will live through the length of the days.
