Psalm 23

The Lord Is My Shepherd

1 The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures;
he leads me beside still waters; 1
3 he restores my soul. 2
He leads me in right paths 3
for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, 4
I 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 overflows.
6 Surely 5 goodness and mercy 6 shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
my whole life long. 7
