Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. The Lord tends me as a shepherd, and I shall lack nothing.

Psalmus David, in finem. Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit:

2 In a place of green grass, there he has made me dwell: he has nourished me by the water of rest.

in loco pascuae ibi me collocavit. Super aquam refectionis educavit me:

3 He has restored my soul: he has guided me into the paths of righteousness, for his name's sake.

animam meam convertit. Deduxit me super semitas iustitiae, propter nomen suum.

4 Yes, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will not be afraid of evils: for you are with me; your rod and your staff, these have comforted me.

Nam, et si ambulavero in medio umbrae mortis, non timebo mala: quoniam tu mecum es. Virga tua, et baculus tuus: ipsa me consolata sunt.

5 You has prepared a table before me in presence of them that afflict me: you have thoroughly anointed my head with oil; and your cup cheers me like the best [wine].

Parasti in conspectu meo mensam, adversus eos, qui tribulant me. Impinguasti in oleo caput meum: et calix meus inebrians quam praeclarus est!

6 Your mercy also shall follow me all the days of my life: and my dwelling [shall be] in the house of the Lord for a very long time.

Et misericordia tua subsequetur me omnibus diebus vitae meae: et ut inhabitem in domo Domini, in longitudinem dierum.
