psalm 23

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures;

He leads me beside the still waters;

He restores my soul; He leads me in the

paths of righteousness for His name's sake.

Yea, 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 comfort me.

You prepare a table before me

in the presence of my enemies;

You anoint my head with oil;

my cup runs over.

Surely, goodness and mercy

shall follow me all the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house

of the LORD for ever.
