Psalm 23


The Lord Is My Shepherd

A Psalm of David.

The Lord is my ashepherd; I shall not bwant.

2
He makes me lie down in green apastures.
He leads me beside still waters.1

3
He arestores my soul.
He bleads me in cpaths of righteousness1
for his dname’s sake.


4
Even though I awalk through the valley of bthe shadow of death,1
I will cfear no evil,
for dyou are with me;
your erod and your staff,
they comfort me.


5
You aprepare a table before me
in bthe presence of my enemies;
you canoint my head with oil;
my dcup overflows.

6
Surely1 goodness and mercy2 shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall adwell3 in the house of the Lord
bforever.4
