¹A Psalm of David.

The Lord is my shepherd;

I shall not lack anything.

²He has me lie down in grassy pastures;

He leads me to restful waters.

³He refreshes my inner being;

He conducts me along righteous paths

For his name's sake.

⁴Even if I walk in the Valley of the Shadow of Death,

I shall not fear evil,

For you are with me.

It is your sceptre and staff that comfort me.

⁵You have set a table before me

In the presence of my adversaries.

You have anointed my head with oil;

My cup abounds.

⁶Surely goodness and kindness will pursue me

All the days of my life,

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord

In the length of days.
