Psalms 23

The Lord, the Psalmist’s Shepherd.

A Psalm of David.

1 The Lord is my ^ashepherd,
I will ^bnot be in need.
2 He lets me lie down in ^cgreen pastures;
He ^dleads me beside ^{▼▼Lit waters of rest
,} ^fquiet waters.
3 He ^grestores my soul;
He ^hguides me in the ^{▼▼Lit tracks
,} ^jpaths of righteousness
For the sake of His name.

4 Even though I ^kwalk through the ^{▼▼Or valley of deep darkness}valley of the shadow of death,
I ^mfear no ^{▼▼Or harm}evil, for ^oYou are with me;
Your ^prod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You ^qprepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You ^{▼▼Or anoint}have ^sanointed my head with oil;
My ^tcup overflows.
6 ^{▼▼Or Only}Certainly ^vgoodness and ^{▼▼Or mercy}faithfulness will follow me all the days of my life,
And my ^xdwelling will be in the house of the Lord ^{▼▼Lit for length of days}forever.
