1 T he Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He himene na Rawiri. Ko Ihowa toku hepara; e kore ahau e hapa.

2 H e makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.

Ko ia hei mea kia takoto ahau ki nga wahi tarutaru hou: e arahi ana ia i ahau ki te taha o nga wai ata rere.

3 H e restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.

Ko ia hei whakahoki ake i toku wairua: e arahi ana ia i ahau i nga ara o te tika, he whakaaro ki tona ingoa.

4 Y ea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Ae, ahakoa haere ahau i te awaawa o te atarangi o te mate, kahore he kino e wehi ai ahau: no te mea kei toku taha koe; ko tau rakau, ko tau tokotoko, ko ena hei oranga ngakau moku.

5 Y ou prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.

E taka ana e koe he tepu ki toku aroaro i te tirohanga a oku hoariri, e whakawahia ana e koe toku matenga ki te hinu, purena tonu taku kapu.

6 S urely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.

He pono e aru i ahau te pai me te atawhai i nga ra katoa e ora ai ahau, a ka noho ahau ki te whare o Ihowa ake tonu atu.
