Psalms 23

1 Jehovah is my shepherd, I shall not want.

[A Psalm by David.] The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not lack.

2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.

3 He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4 Yea, tho I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou are with me, thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Even 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 Thou prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. Thou have anointed my head with oil. My cup runs over.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup overflows.

6 Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah forever.
