Sabuurradii 23

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

A Melody of David. Yahweh, 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 maketh me lie down, Unto restful waters, he leadeth me;

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

My life, he restoreth, He guideth me in right paths, 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 a valley death-shadowed, I will fear no harm, for, thou, art with me, Thy rod and thy staff, they, comfort me.

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

Thou spreadest before me a table, in face of mine adversaries, Thou hast anointed, with oil, my head, My cup, hath run over.

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

Surely, goodness and lovingkindness, will pursue me, all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of Yahweh, evermore.
