< Psalms 23 >
1 A psalm of David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I will lack nothing.
A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside tranquil water.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He brings back my life; he guides me along right paths for his name's sake.
He restoreth my soul; He guideth me in straight paths for His name's sake.
4 Even though I walk through a valley of darkest shadow, I will not fear harm since you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you have anointed my head with oil; my cup runs over.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou hast anointed my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and covenant faithfulness will pursue me all the days of my life; and I will live in the house of Yahweh for a very long time!
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
