Psalmi 23

1 Dāvida dziesma. Tas Kungs ir mans gans, man netrūks nenieka.

A psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd: I am never in need.

2 Viņš man liek ganīties uz zālainām ganībām, Viņš mani vada pie palēna ūdens.

He lays me down in green pastures. He gently leads me to waters of rest,

3 Viņš atspirdzina manu dvēseli, Viņš mani ved uz taisnības ceļiem Sava Vārda dēļ.

he refreshes my life. He guides me along paths that are straight, true to his name.

4 Jebšu es arī staigātu nāves ēnas ielejā, taču ļaunuma nebīstos; jo Tu esi pie manis, Tavs koks(ganu vēzda) un Tavs zizlis mani iepriecina.

And when my way lies through a valley of gloom, I fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff comfort me.

5 Tu sataisi manā priekšā galdu pret maniem ienaidniekiem, Tu svaidi manu galvu ar eļļu, mans biķeris ir papilnam pieliets.

You spread a table for me in face of my foes; with oil you anoint my head, and my cup runs over.

6 Tiešām, labums un žēlastība mani pavadīs visu manu mūžu, un es palikšu Tā Kunga namā vienmēr.

Surely goodness and love will pursue me – all the days of my life. In the house of the Lord I will live through the length of the days.
