Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

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

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

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

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

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

4 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.

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 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

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 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

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.
