A Psalm of David. The Lord tends me as a shepherd, And I shall want nothing.
In a place of green grass, there he has made me dwell:
He has nourished me by the water of rest.
He has restored my soul:
He has guided me into the paths of righteousness,
For his name’s sake.
Yea, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death,
I will not be afraid of evils: for thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, these have comforted me.
Thou hast prepared a table before me in presence of them that afflict me:
Thou hast thoroughly anointed my head with oil;
And thy cup cheers me like the best wine.
Thy mercy also shall follow me all the days of my life:
And my dwelling shall be in the house of the Lord for a very long time.
