Psalm 23 (English Standard Version)
Psalm 23
The LORD Is My Shepherd
A Psalm of David.
1The LORD is my(A) shepherd; I shall not(
want.
2He makes me lie down in green(C) pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.[a]
3He(D) restores my soul.
He(E) leads me in(F) paths of righteousness[b]
for his(G) name’s sake.
4Even though I(H) walk through the valley of(I) the shadow of death,[c]
I will(J) fear no evil,
for(K) you are with me;
your(L) rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5You(M) prepare a table before me
in(N) the presence of my enemies;
you(O) anoint my head with oil;
my(P) cup overflows.
6Surely[d] goodness and mercy[e] shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall(Q) dwell[f] in the house of the LORD
(R) forever.[g]
