Mapisarema 23

1 Pisarema raDhavhidhi. Jehovha ndiye mufudzi wangu, hapana chandingashayiwa.

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

2 Anondivatisa pamafuro manyoro, anondisesedza pamvura inozorodza,

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

3 anoponesa mweya wangu. Anondifambisa panzira dzokururama nokuda kwezita rake.

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

4 Kunyange ndikafamba nomumupata womumvuri worufu, handingatyi zvakaipa, nokuti imi muneni; tsvimbo yenyu nomudonzvo wenyu zvinondinyaradza.

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 Munondigadzirira tafura pamberi pavavengi vangu. Munozodza musoro wangu namafuta; mukombe wangu unopfachukira.

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

6 Zvirokwazvo kunaka kwenyu norudo rwenyu zvichanditevera, mazuva ose oupenyu hwangu, uye ndichagara mumba maJehovha nokusingaperi.

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!
