“The LORD Is My Shepherd A Psalm of David. PSALM 23 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. [1] 3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness [2] for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, [3] I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely [4] goodness and mercy [5] shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell [6] in the house of the LORD forever. [7]”
― Anonymous, The Holy Bible, English Standard Version
