The 23 rd Psalm
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He
leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul; He leadeth me in the paths of
righteous for his name’s sake. Yea, 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. Thou preparest a
table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup
runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell
in the house of the Lord forever.
