1 The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want;

2 he makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters;

3 he restores my soul.

He leads me in paths of righteousness

for his name’s sake.

4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I fear no evil;

for thou art with me;

thy rod and thy staff,

they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me

in the presence of my enemies;

thou anointest my head with oil,

my cup overflows.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

all the days of my life;

and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord

for ever.
