Here's my bad Spanish version:

El padre es mi pastor. No voy a querer.

El me deja dormir en los pastos verdes,

El me lleva a las aguas tranquilas.

Si, yo camino en el valle de muerte,

Pero no tengo miedo de los malos, porque eres conmigo.

Tu baston y barra me confortar.

Tu preperas una mesa a delante de yo en la vista de mis enemigos.

Estoy seguro que la bondad y el amor van a sigueme durante mi vida,

Y voy a vivir en la casa de nuestro padre todos los dias.

Amen.

Ahhh...that doesn't grasp the metaphorical quality of the lyrics.  The word is "lord' and not "father," and also, is the word "shepherd" really "pastor?"

Like I said, it's bad, bad Spanish! But I did get a few things right. Here's a Spanish online Bible's rendering:

El SEÑOR es mi pastor, Nada me faltará.

2En lugares de verdes pastos me hace descansar; Junto a aguas de reposo me conduce.

3El restaura mi alma; Me guía por senderos de justicia Por amor de Su nombre.

4Aunque pase por el valle de sombra de muerte, No temeré mal alguno, porque Tú estás conmigo; Tu vara y Tu cayado me infunden aliento.

5Tú preparas mesa delante de mí en presencia de mis enemigos; Has ungido mi cabeza con aceite; Mi copa está rebosando.

6Ciertamente el bien y la misericordia me seguirán todos los días de mi vida, Y en la casa del SEÑOR moraré por largos días.

Yes, I'm a dick. But someone had to ask, and I decided in this case it might as well be me ...

Sorry, vic.
