Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down tn green pastures;
He teadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me tn the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil, for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me tn the presence of mine enemies;
Thou anointest my head with oil: my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shaU follow me
all the days of my life:
And I will dwell tn the house of the Lord for ever.
