1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my shepherd ; I shall not want.

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures ; He leadeth me beside still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul : He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 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.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies : Thou hast anointed my head with oil ; My cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life ; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah for ever.
