Psalms 23

1 A psalm of David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I will lack nothing.

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

2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside tranquil water.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He brings back my life; he guides me along right paths for his name's sake.

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

4 Even though I walk through a valley of darkest shadow, I will not fear harm since you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me.

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 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you have anointed my head with oil; my cup runs over.

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 covenant faithfulness will pursue me all the days of my life; and I will live in the house of Yahweh for a very long time!

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.
