< Psalmorum 23 >
1 psalmus David Dominus reget me et nihil mihi deerit
A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH [is] my shepherd, I do not lack,
2 in loco pascuae ibi me conlocavit super aquam refectionis educavit me
He causes me to lie down in pastures of tender grass, He leads me by quiet waters.
3 animam meam convertit deduxit me super semitas iustitiae propter nomen suum
He refreshes my soul, He leads me in 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
Also—when I walk in a valley of death-shade, I 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 inpinguasti in oleo caput meum et calix meus inebrians quam praeclarus est
You arrange a table before me, In front of my adversaries, You have anointed my head with oil, My cup is full!
6 et misericordia tua subsequitur me omnibus diebus vitae meae et ut inhabitem in domo Domini in longitudinem dierum
Surely goodness and kindness pursue me All the days of my life, And my dwelling [is] in the house of YHWH, For [the] length of [my] days!
