Psalm 23

¹ The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

² He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters¹.

³ He restores my soul.

He leads me in paths of righteousness²
for his name’s sake.

⁴ Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death³,
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 overflows.

⁶ Surely⁴ goodness and mercy⁵ shall follow me
all the days of my life,

and I shall dwell⁶ in the house of the LORD
forever⁷.
