Psalms 23

A Psalm by David.

¹ The LORD is my shepherd;
I shall lack nothing. ² He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters. ³ He restores my soul.
He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. ⁴ Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Your rod and your staff,
they comfort me. ⁵ You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup runs over. ⁶ Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the LORD’s house forever.
