23:1 A psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

23:2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters,

23:3 he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

23:5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.

23:6 Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
