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 the paths of righteousness for His name 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 anointest my 
head with oil; my cup runneth over. 
Surely goodness and mercy shall iol!ow ..rne 
all the days of my life: I will dwell i11 the house of the Lord for ever.
