Psalm 23

PSALM 23

Yahweh Is My Shepherd

A Psalm of David.

¹Yahweh is my ^ashepherd,

I ¹shall ^bnot want.

²He makes me lie down in ^agreen pastures;

He ^bleads me beside ^1cquiet waters.

³He ^arestores my soul;

He ^bguides me in the ^1cpaths of righteousness

For His name’s sake.

⁴Even though I ^awalk through the ¹valley of the shadow of death,

I ^bfear no ²evil, for ^cYou are with me;

Your ^drod and Your staff, they comfort me.

⁵You ^aprepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;

You ¹have ^banointed my head with oil;

My ^ccup overflows.

⁶¹Surely ^agoodness and lovingkindness will ²pursue me all the days of my life,

And I will ^3bdwell in the house of Yahweh ⁴forever.
