The Lord, the Psalmist’s Shepherd.

A Psalm of David.

1 The Lord is my Shepherd [to feed, to guide and to shield me], [Ezek 34:11-31] I shall not want.

2 He lets me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still and quiet waters. [Rev 7:17]

3 He refreshes and restores my soul (life); He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.

4 Even though I walk through the [sunless] valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide], they comfort and console me.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You have anointed and refreshed my head with oil; My cup overflows.

6 Surely goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, And I shall dwell forever [throughout all my days] in the house and in the presence of the Lord.
