A Psalm by David.
[1] Yahweh is my shepherd;I shall lack nothing.
[2] He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
[3] He restores my soul.
He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
[4] Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
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 runs over.
[6] Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
