Psalms 23



23

A song of David.[121]

<1> The Lord is my shepherd.

I will always have everything I need.[122]

<2> He gives me green pastures to lie in.

He leads me by calm pools of water.

<3> He restores my strength

and leads me on good paths[123]

to show he is good.

<4> Even if I walk through a valley as dark as the grave,[124]

I will not be afraid of any danger, because you are with me.

Your rod and staff[125] comfort me.

<5> You prepared my table

in front of my enemies.

You welcomed me as an honored guest.[126]

My cup is full and spilling over.

<6> Goodness and mercy will be with me

the rest of my life,

and I will live in the Lord's house[127]

for a long, long time.[128]
