Psalmi 23

1 Gospod je moj pastir, ne bom trpel pomanjkanja.

A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2 Napravlja mi, da se zleknem na zelenih pašnikih. Vodi me ob mirnih vodah.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters.

3 Mojo dušo obnavlja. Zaradi svojega imena me vodi po stezah pravičnosti.

He restoreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 Da, čeprav hodim skozi dolino smrtne sence, se ne bom bal nobenega zla, kajti ti si z menoj; tvoja šiba in tvoja opora me tolažita.

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 Pred menoj pripravljaš mizo, v prisotnosti mojih sovražnikov. Mojo glavo maziliš z oljem, moja čaša prekipeva.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

6 Zagotovo me bosta dobrota in usmiljenje spremljali vse dni mojega življenja, in v Gospodovi hiši bom prebival na veke.

Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.
