Psalmorum 23

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

A Psalm. Of David. The Lord takes care of me as his sheep; I will not be without any good thing.

2 in loco pascuae ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me:

He makes a resting-place for me in the green fields: he is my guide by the quiet waters.

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

He gives new life to my soul: he is my guide in the ways of righteousness because of his name.

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

Yes, though I go through the valley of deep shade, I will have no fear of evil; for you are with me, your rod and your support are my comfort.

5 Parasti in conspectu meo mensam, adversus eos, qui tribulant me. Impinguasti in oleo caput meum: et calix meus inebrians quam praeclarus est!

You make ready a table for me in front of my haters: you put oil on my head; my cup is overflowing.

6 Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitae meae: et ut inhabitem in domo Domini, in longitudinem dierum.

Truly, blessing and mercy will be with me all the days of my life; and I will have a place in the house of the Lord all my days.
