Psalms 23

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

“A psalm of David.” The LORD is my shepherd: I shall not want.

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

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.

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

He reviveth my soul; He leadeth me in paths of safety, For his name's sake.

4 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.

When I walk through a valley of deathlike shade, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy crook and thy staff, they comfort me.

5 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.

Thou preparest a table before me In the presence of mine enemies. Thou anointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

6 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.

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.
