Psalms 23

1 A Psalme of David. The Lord is my shepheard, I shall not want.

A Melody of David. Yahweh, is my shepherd—I shall not want:

2 He maketh me to rest in greene pasture, and leadeth me by the still waters.

In pastures of tender grass, he maketh me lie down, Unto restful waters, he leadeth me;

3 He restoreth my soule, and leadeth me in the paths of righteousnesse for his Names sake.

My life, he restoreth, He guideth me in right paths, for the sake of his Name.

4 Yea, though I should walke through the valley of the shadowe of death, I will feare no euill: for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staffe, they comfort me.

Yea, though I walk through a valley death-shadowed, I will fear no harm, for, thou, art with me, Thy rod and thy staff, they, comfort me.

5 Thou doest prepare a table before me in the sight of mine aduersaries: thou doest anoynt mine head with oyle, and my cuppe runneth ouer.

Thou spreadest before me a table, in face of mine adversaries, Thou hast anointed, with oil, my head, My cup, hath run over.

6 Doubtlesse kindnesse and mercie shall follow me all the dayes of my life, and I shall remaine a long season in the house of the Lord.

Surely, goodness and lovingkindness, will pursue me, all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of Yahweh, evermore.
