^[1] Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing.

^[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.
