גַּ֤ם כִּֽי־אֵלֵ֨ךְ בְּגֵ֪יא צַלְמָ֡וֶת לֹא־אִ֘ירָ֤א רָ֗ע כִּי־אַתָּ֥ה עִמָּדִ֑י שִׁבְטְךָ֥ וּ֝מִשְׁעַנְתֶּ֗ךָ הֵ֣מָּה יְנַֽחֲמֻֽנִי׃
Kahit na lumakad ako sa libis ng matinding kadiliman, hindi ako matatakot sa anumang masama, sapagkat ikaw ay kasama ko; ang iyong pamalo at ang iyong tungkod, ang mga ito ang umaaliw sa akin.
