Nnwom 23

1 Dawid dwom. Awurade ne me hwɛfo, hwee renhia me.

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

2 Ɔma meda wura frɔmfrɔm adidibea; ogya me kɔ nsu a ɛho dwo ho,

He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.

3 odwudwo me kra. Ɔde me fa akwantrenee so, ne din nti.

He restores my soul; He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name.

4 Sɛ menam owu sum kabii mu mpo a, minsuro bɔne bi, efisɛ wo ne me na ɛwɔ hɔ; wʼabaa ne wo pema na ɛkyekye me werɛ.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

5 Woto me pon wɔ mʼatamfo anim. Wode ngo fɔw me tirim; me kuruwa yɛ ma bu so.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

6 Yiye ne adɔe nko na ebedi mʼakyi me nkwanna nyinaa; na mɛtena Awurade fi daa.

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
