TRANSLATION OF PSALM 23:
The Lo rd is my Protector. For, He provides for eil my needs.
He enables me to rest amidst bounteous res ources beyond my capacity to consume. And, when I am thirsty, God takes me to refreshing streams.
vThen I go astray, He ever restores me to His Fellouship and keeps me in His way out of His own concern for my welfare.
If my very existence is imperiled because I follm,1 after Him, I shall never fear, for He is with me and in me. His abiding presence and protective care give this assurance.
And, when I am hungry, He feeds me even in the presence of those who would harm me . When I am sorely distressed, He pours upon my head refreshing oil to my soul's delight . Such joy it gives me is beyond my delight.
Surely God's goodness and mercy have sustained me from cradle until now, and will follow me to my grave. For this, I shall praise and bless His Name as long as I live. Wherever I am His House of Prayer shall be there also~ (Tr. by Pastor Wo Ro HcCa ll)
