Zabbuli 23

1 Zabbuli ya Dawudi. Mukama ye Musumba wange, seetaagenga.

A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH [is] my shepherd, I do not lack,

2 Angalamiza ne mpummulira mu ddundiro ly’omuddo omuto. Antwala awali amazzi amateefu.

He causes me to lie down in pastures of tender grass, He leads me by quiet waters.

3 Akomyawo emmeeme yange. Annuŋŋamya okukola eby’obutuukirivu olw’erinnya lye.

He refreshes my soul, He leads me in paths of righteousness For His Name’s sake;

4 Newaakubadde nga ntambulira mu kiwonvu eky’ekisiikirize eky’olumbe, siritya kabi konna; kubanga ggwe oli nange. Oluga lwo n’omuggo gwo bye binsanyusa.

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 Onsosootolera emmere abalabe bange nga balaba; onsiize amafuta ku mutwe, ekikompe kyange kiyiwa.

You arrange a table before me, In front of my adversaries, You have anointed my head with oil, My cup is full!

6 Ddala ddala obulungi n’okwagala okutaggwaawo binaagendanga nange ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwange; nange nnaabeeranga mu nnyumba ya Mukama, ennaku zonna.

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!
