Psalms 23

1 A psalm of David. Since the Lord is my shepherd, I have everything I need.

`The salm, ether the song of Dauid. The Lord gouerneth me, and no thing schal faile to me;

2 He gives me rest in green fields. He leads me towards quietly flowing streams.

in the place of pasture there he hath set me. He nurschide me on the watir of refreischyng;

3 He revives me. He guides me along the right paths because that's the kind of person he is.

he conuertide my soule. He ledde me forth on the pathis of riytfulnesse; for his name.

4 Even when I walk through the valley dark as death, I'm not afraid of any evil, because you are right there with me; your rod and your staff protect me.

For whi thouy Y schal go in the myddis of schadewe of deeth; Y schal not drede yuels, for thou art with me. Thi yerde and thi staf; tho han coumfortid me.

5 You prepare a banquet for me before my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with olive oil. My cup is so full it overflows!

Thou hast maad redi a boord in my siyt; ayens hem that troblen me. Thou hast maad fat myn heed with oyle; and my cuppe, `fillinge greetli, is ful cleer.

6 I'm absolutely certain that your goodness and trustworthy love will be with me all through my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord forever.

And thi merci schal sue me; in alle the daies of my lijf. And that Y dwelle in the hows of the Lord; in to the lengthe of daies.
