Psalms 23

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

Ko e Saame ʻa Tevita. Ko hoku tauhi ʻa Sihova; ʻe ʻikai te u masiva.

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

‌ʻOku ne fakatokoto au ʻi he ngaahi ngoue lau maʻuiʻui: ʻoku ne tataki au ki he veʻe vai ʻoku tafetafemālie.

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

‌ʻOku ne fakamoʻui hoku laumālie: ʻoku ne tataki au ʻi he ngaahi hala ʻoe māʻoniʻoni koeʻuhi ko hono huafa.

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.

‌ʻIo, neongo ʻeku ʻeveʻeva ʻi he teleʻa ʻoe malumalu ʻoe mate, ʻe ʻikai te u manavahē ki ha kovi: he ʻoku ke ʻiate au; ko hoʻo vaʻa ʻakau mo ho tokotoko ʻoku na fakafiemālieʻi au.

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!

‌ʻOku ke teuteu ʻae keinangaʻanga maʻaku ʻi he ʻao ʻo hoku ngaahi fili: ʻoku ke pani ʻaki hoku ʻulu ʻae lolo; ʻoku fonu mahuohua ʻa ʻeku ipu.

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.

Ko e moʻoni ʻe muimui ʻiate au ʻae lelei mo e ʻaloʻofa ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻeku moʻui: pea te u nofo ʻi he fale ʻo Sihova ʻo lauikuonga.
