Psalms 23

A psalm of David

The LORD is

my shepherd;

I will not be in want.

2 He makes me lie down

in green pastures.

He leads me beside

the still waters.

3 He restores my soul.

He leads me in the paths of

righteousness for

his name’s sake.

4 Yes, 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.

5 You prepare a table before me

in the presence of my enemies.

You anoint my head with oil.

My cup runs over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy

will follow me all the days

of my life,

and I will dwell in the house

of the LORD forever.
