Psalms 23

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

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 the still waters.

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

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

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.

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 anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

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

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.

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!
