Psalm 23 (KJV) — The Lord Is My Shepherd

¹A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

²He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. ^{green: Heb. pastures of tender grass} ^{still: Heb. waters of quietness}

³He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

⁴Yea, 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.

⁵Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. ^{anointest: Heb. makest fat}

⁶Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever . ^{for ever: Heb. to length of days}
