PSALM 23
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'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. Tho u 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 follo w me all the
days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
