Psalms 23

1 A psalm for David. The Lord ruleth me: and I shall want nothing.

2 He hath set me in a place of pasture. He hath brought me up, on the water of refreshment:

Ampandrea’e an-dovoke maindoñe ao, tehafe’e mb’añ’olon-drano mipendreñe mb’eo.

3 He hath converted my soul. He hath led me on the paths of justice, for his own name’s sake.

Vaòe’e ty fiaiko, iaoloa’e mb’an-dalam-bantañe, ty amy tahina’ey.

4 For though I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils, for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they have comforted me.

Ndra t’ie miranga i vatanen- talinjon-kavilasiy, tsy ho hemban-karatiañe amy te Ihe ro amako; mpañohò ahiko ty kobai’o naho ty fitoño’o.

5 Thou hast prepared a table before me against them that afflict me. Thou hast anointed my head with oil; and my chalice which inebriateth me, how goodly is it!

Halànkañe’o fandambañañe aoloko añatrefan-drafelahiko eo; añiliña’o solike ty lohako, mandopatse ty fitoviko.

6 And thy mercy will follow me all the days of my life. And that I may dwell in the house of the Lord unto length of days.

Toe hañorik’ ahy amo hene andro hivelomakoo ty hasoa naho ty fiferenaiñañe; le hitobok’ añ’anjomba’ Iehovà ao nainai’e.
