The LORD Is My Shepherd
23 A Psalm of David.
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.(1) 3He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness(1)
for his name's sake. 4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,(1)
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me. 5You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows. 6Surely(1) goodness and mercy(2) shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell(3) in the house of the LORD
forever.(4)
Psalm 23:2 - (1) 23:2 Hebrew *beside waters of rest*
