< Psalms 23 >

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH [is] my shepherd, I do not lack,
Jehovah is my shepherd, I shall not want.
2 He causes me to lie down in pastures of tender grass, He leads me by quiet waters.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
3 He refreshes my soul, He leads me in paths of righteousness For His Name’s sake;
He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Also—when I walk in a valley of death-shade, I fear no evil, for You [are] with me, Your rod and Your staff—they comfort me.
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.
5 You arrange a table before me, In front of my adversaries, You have anointed my head with oil, My cup is full!
Thou prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. Thou have anointed my head with oil. My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and kindness pursue me All the days of my life, And my dwelling [is] in the house of YHWH, For [the] length of [my] days!
Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah forever.
