1(23) A Psalm of David. The Lord tends me as a shepherd, and I shall lack nothing.
1A Psalm by David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing.
2In a place of green grass, there he has made me dwell: he has nourished me by the water of rest.
2He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
3He has restored my soul: he has guided me into the paths of righteousness, for his name's sake.
3He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4Yes, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will not be afraid of evils: for you are with me; your rod and your staff, these have comforted me.
4Even 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.
5You have prepared a table before me in presence of them that afflict me: you have thoroughly anointed my head with oil; and your cup cheers me like the best [wine].
5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over.
6Your mercy also shall follow me all the days of my life: and my dwelling [shall be] in the house of the Lord for a very long time.
6Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.
