Psalms 23

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

1 Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.

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

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

3My soul He refresheth, He leadeth me in 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.

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.

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.

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

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

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!

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.
