    The Lord Is My Shepherd
    A Psalm of David.
    23
    The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
    2     He makes me lie down in green pastures.
    He leads me beside still waters.[a]
    3     He restores my soul.
    He leads me in paths of righteousness[b]
        for his name's sake.
    4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,[c]
        I will fear no evil,
    for you are with me;
        your rod and your staff,
        they comfort me.
    5 You prepare a table before me
        in the presence of my enemies;
    you anoint my head with oil;
        my cup overflows.
    6 Surely[d] goodness and mercy[e] shall follow me
        all the days of my life,
    and I shall dwell[f] in the house of the Lord
        forever
