Salamo 23

1 Mpiarak’ ahy t’Iehovà, tsy hieran-draho;

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

2 Ampandrea’e an-dovoke maindoñe ao, tehafe’e mb’añ’olon-drano mipendreñe mb’eo.

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

3 Vaòe’e ty fiaiko, iaoloa’e mb’an-dalam-bantañe, ty amy tahina’ey.

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

4 Ndra t’ie miranga i vatanen- talinjon-kavilasiy, tsy ho hemban-karatiañe amy te Ihe ro amako; mpañohò ahiko ty kobai’o naho ty fitoño’o.

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 Halànkañe’o fandambañañe aoloko añatrefan-drafelahiko eo; añiliña’o solike ty lohako, mandopatse ty fitoviko.

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

6 Toe hañorik’ ahy amo hene andro hivelomakoo ty hasoa naho ty fiferenaiñañe; le hitobok’ añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao nainai’e.

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.
