Psalm 23

The Good Shepherd

A Davidic psalm.

1 The Lord is my shepherd;(a)
there is nothing I lack.(b)
2 He lets me lie down in green pastures;(c)
He leads me beside quiet waters.(d)
3 He renews my life;
He leads me along the right paths[a]
for His name's sake.(e)
4 Even when I go through the darkest valley,[b]
I fear no danger,
for You are with me;(f)
Your rod and Your staff[c]—they comfort me.(g)

5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;(h)
my cup overflows.(i)
6 Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me
all the days of my life,(j)
and I will dwell in[d] the house of the Lord
as long as I live.[e](k)
