Psalms 23

1The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

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.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

2 He 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.

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

3 He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in 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?

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.

4 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.

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

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

5 Thou 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.

6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

6 Surely, goodness and loving-kindness shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of Jehovah for the length of the days.

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