Psalms 23

1Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.

1 The Lord takes care of me as his sheep; I will not be without any good thing.

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

2He makes a resting-place for me in the green fields: he is my guide by the quiet waters.

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

3He gives new life to my soul: he is my guide in the ways of righteousness because of his name.

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.

4Yes, though I go through the valley of deep shade, I will have no fear of evil; for you are with me, your rod and your support are my comfort.

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

5You make ready a table for me in front of my haters: you put oil on my head; my cup is overflowing.

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

6Truly, blessing and mercy will be with me all the days of my life; and I will have a place in the house of the Lord all my days.
