< Psalmorum 23 >
1 psalmus David Dominus reget me et nihil mihi deerit
A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 in loco pascuae ibi me conlocavit super aquam refectionis educavit me
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters.
3 animam meam convertit deduxit me super semitas iustitiae propter nomen suum
He restoreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
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
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
5 parasti in conspectu meo mensam adversus eos qui tribulant me inpinguasti in oleo caput meum et calix meus inebrians quam praeclarus est
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup runneth over.
6 et misericordia tua subsequitur me omnibus diebus vitae meae et ut inhabitem in domo Domini in longitudinem dierum
Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.
