Psalmorum 23

1 Psalmus David. Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:

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

2 in loco pascuæ, ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me;

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

3 animam meam convertit. Deduxit me super semitas justitiæ propter nomen suum.

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

4 Nam etsi ambulavero in medio umbræ mortis, non timebo mala, quoniam tu mecum es. Virga tua, et baculus tuus, ipsa me consolata sunt.

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 Parasti in conspectu meo mensam adversus eos qui tribulant me; impinguasti in oleo caput meum: et calix meus inebrians, quam præclarus est!

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

6 Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitæ meæ; et ut inhabitem in domo Domini in longitudinem dierum.

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