The LORD is my shepherd; I sha ll not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul :
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for hi s name' s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death ,
I wi ll fear no evi l: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall fo ll ow me all the days of my life:
And I will dwe ll in the house of the LORD forever.
