A Psalm of David.

1The LORD is my shepherd,
         I shall not want.

2He makes me lie down in green pastures;
         He leads me beside quiet waters.

3He restores my soul;
         He guides me in the paths of righteousness
         For His name’s sake.

4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
         I fear no evil, for You are with me;
         Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
         You have anointed my head with oil;
         My cup overflows.

6Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
         And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
