Psalm 23 (American Standard Version)

A Psalm of David.

1Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;

He leadeth me beside still waters.

3He restoreth my soul:

He guideth me in the 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.

5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:

Thou hast anointed my head with oil;

My cup runneth over.

6Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life;

And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.
