TWENTY-THIRD PSALM.
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green
pastures: he leadeth me beside the
still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me
in 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 in
the presence of mine enemies: thou
annointest my head with oil; my cup
runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life: and I will
dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
