PSALM 23
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
2He makes me down to lie
In pastures green: he leadeth me
the quiet waters by.
3My soul he doth restore again;
and me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
ev'n for his own name's sake.
4Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale,
yet will I fear none ill:
For thou art with me; and thy rod
and staff me comfort still.
5My table thou hast furnished
in presence of my foes;
My head thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.
6Goodness and mercy all my life
shall surely follow me:
And in God's house for evermore
my dwelling-place shall be.

Psalm 23
23
Psalm 23
A psalm of David.
1The Lord is my shepherd. He gives me everything I need.
2He lets me lie down in fields of green grass.
He leads me beside quiet waters.
3He gives me new strength.
He guides me in the right paths
for the honor of his name.
4Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will not be afraid.
You are with me.
Your shepherd’s rod and staff
comfort me.
5You prepare a feast for me
right in front of my enemies.
You pour oil on my head.
My cup runs over.
6I am sure that your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life.
And I will live in the house of the Lord
forever.
