Psalms 23

1 Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.

1On the first day of the week, a psalm for David. The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof: the world, and all they that dwell therein.

1A Psalm of David. Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> my shepherd, I do not lack,

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside still waters.

2For he hath founded it upon the seas; and hath prepared it upon the rivers.

2In pastures of tender grass He causeth me to lie down, By quiet waters He doth lead me.

3He restoreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

3Who shall ascend into the mountain of the Lord: or who shall stand in his holy place?

3My soul He refresheth, He leadeth me in 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.

4The innocent in hands, and clean of heart, who hath not taken his soul in vain, nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbour.

4Also--when I walk in a valley of death-shade, I fear no evil, for Thou <FI>art<Fi> with me, Thy rod and Thy staff--they comfort me.

5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

5He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, and mercy from God his Saviour.

5Thou arrangest before me a table, Over-against my adversaries, Thou hast anointed with oil my head, My cup is full!

6Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.

6This is the generation of them that seek him, of them that seek the face of the God of Jacob.

6Only--goodness and kindness pursue me, All the days of my life, And my dwelling <FI>is<Fi> in the house of Jehovah, For a length of days!
