23ú Salm - 23rd Psalm


Caorigh ag dul síos bóthair na hÉireann
Sheep going down an Irish road
Rush hour in Ireland

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. In verdent pastures he gives me repose... Psalm 23.

S É AN TIARNA mAoire:
ní bheidh aon ní de dhíth orm.

2. Cuireann sé féin i mo luí mé
i mó inéar féir ghlais.
Seolann sé ar imeall an uisce mé

3. mar a bhfaighim suaimhneas.
Seolann sé ar shlí na fíréantachta mé
mar gheall ar a ainm.

4. Fiú dá siúlfainn i ngleann an dorchadais,
níor bhaol liom an t-olc
agus tú faram le do shlat is do bhachall
chun sólás a thabhairt dom.

5. Cóiríonn tú bord chun béile dom
i láthair mo naimhde.
Ungann tú mo cheann le hola;
tá mo chupa ag cur thairis.

6. Leanfaidh cineáltas is buanghrá mé
gach lá de mo shaol;
i dteach an Tiarna a mhairfidh mé
go brách na breithe.

The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want.

In verdent pastures he gives me repose;
Beside restful waters he leads me;
He refreshes my soul.

He guides me in right
paths for his name's sake.
.

Even though I walk in the dark valley
I fear no evil for you are at my side.
Your rod and your staff
They comfort me.

You set a table before me
In the sight of my foes
You anoint my head with oil
My cup overflows

Surely goodness and kindness
Shall follow me all the days of my life
And I shall dwell in the house
Of the Lord forever.
