Psalm 23

1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not

want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green

pastures: he leadeth me beside the

still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me

in the paths of righteousness for his

name's sake.

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.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in

the presence of mine enemies: thou

anointest my head with oil; my cup

runneth over.

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.
