Sabuurradii 23

1 Rabbigu waa adhijirka i jira; waxba u baahan maayo.

“A psalm of David.” The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

2 Wuxuu i fadhiisiyaa doog qoyan dhexdiis, Oo wuxuu ii hoggaamiyaa biyaha deggan dhinacooda.

In pastures of tender grass he causeth me to lie down: beside still waters he leadeth me.

3 Naftayda wuu soo celiyaa. Oo magiciisa aawadiis wuxuu igu hor kacaa waddooyinka xaqnimada.

My soul he refresheth: he guideth me in the tracks of righteousness for the sake of his name.

4 In kastoo aan ku dhex socdo dooxada hooska dhimashada, Sharna ka baqi maayo, waayo, waad ila jirtaa, Ushaada iyo hangoolkaaga ayaa ii raaxeeya.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear evil; for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staff—they indeed comfort me.

5 Cadaawayaashayda hortooda waxaad iigu diyaarisaa miis, Oo saliid baad madaxayga ku subagtaa, koobkayguna waa buuxdhaafaa.

Thou preparest before me a table in the presence of my assailants; thou anointest with oil my head: my cup overfloweth.

6 Hubaal cimrigayga oo dhan waxaa i raaci doona wanaag iyo naxariis, Oo weligay guriga Rabbiga ayaan degganaan doonaa.

Surely, only goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life: and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord to the utmost length of days.
