Psalms 23

   |   

The LORD, the Psalmist's Shepherd.

A Psalm of David.

1 The LORD is my (C1)Shepherd to feed, to guide and to shield me, (VR1)
I shall (C2)not want.

2 He lets me lie down in (C1)green pastures;
He (C2)leads me beside the (C3)still and quiet waters. (VR1)

3 He (C1)refreshes and restores my soul (life);
He (C2)leads me in the (C3)paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.

4 Even though I (C1)walk through the sunless (F1)valley of the shadow of death,
I (C2)fear no evil, for (C3)You are with me;
Your (C4)rod to protect and Your staff to guide, they comfort and console me.

5 You (C1)prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You have (C2)anointed and refreshed my head with (F1)oil;
My (C3)cup overflows.

6 Surely (C1)goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life,
And I shall (C2)dwell forever throughout all my days in the house and in the presence of the LORD.
