א מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד: יְהוָה רֹעִי, לֹא אֶחְסָר. ב בִּנְאוֹת דֶּשֶׁא, יַרְבִּיצֵנִי; עַל-מֵי מְנֻחוֹת יְנַהֲלֵנִי. ג נַפְשִׁי יְשׁוֹבֵב; יַנְחֵנִי בְמַעְגְּלֵי-צֶדֶק, לְמַעַן שְׁמוֹ. ד גַּם כִּי-אֵלֵךְ בְּגֵיא צַלְמָוֶת, לֹא-אִירָא רָע-- כִּי-אַתָּה עִמָּדִי; שִׁבְטְךָ וּמִשְׁעַנְתֶּךָ, הֵמָּה יְנַחֲמֻנִי. ה תַּעֲרֹךְ לְפָנַי, שֻׁלְחָן-- נֶגֶד צֹרְרָי; דִּשַּׁנְתָּ בַשֶּׁמֶן רֹאשִׁי, כּוֹסִי רְוָיָה. ו אַךְ, טוֹב וָחֶסֶד יִרְדְּפוּנִי-- כָּל-יְמֵי חַיָּי; וְשַׁבְתִּי בְּבֵית-יְהוָה, לְאֹרֶךְ יָמִים.

1. Salm de David
El Senyor és el meu pastor, res em mancarà.
2. Ell em deixa reposar en verdes prades;
em mena vers rierols tranquils.
3. Reconforta la meva ànima,
em condueix per camins de justícia
per a la glòria del seu nom.
4. I si camino per la vall tenebrosa de la mort
no tinc por de cap mal:
car tu, Senyor, ets al meu costat.
El teu bastó i el teu suport
són sempre el meu conhort.
5. Tu em prepares un banquet
davant els enemics;
m’has ungit el cap amb oli
i omples a vessar la meva copa.
6. La salut i la benaurança m’acompanyaran
en aquesta vida,
i un dia reposaré per sempre
allà a la casa de l’Etern.
