The LORD Is My Shepherd
Psalm 23
This is one of King David’s songs
about God:
The LORD
is my shepherd.
He gives me everything I need.
He lets me lie down in fields of green
grass. He leads me beside quiet waters.
He gives me new strength.
He guides me in the right paths
for the honor of his name.
Even though I walk through the
darkest valley, I will not be afraid.
You, God, are with me. Your
shepherd’s rod and staff comfort me.
You prepare a feast for me
right in front of my enemies.
You pour oil on my head.
My cup runs over.
I am sure that your goodness
and love will follow me
all the days of my life.
And I will live in the house
of the LORD
forever.
