Psalm 23
David's confidence in the grace of God.
A Psalm of David.
Psalm 23
1 The Lord is my shepherd[1]; I shall not want.[2]
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures[3]: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me[4]; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 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[5].
