Psalmi 23

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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!

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

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.
