The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not tvant. He maketh n1e to lie dotvn in green pastures:
He leadeth tne beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth tne in the paths
Of righteousness for f-Jis nante's sake.
Yea, though I wa'lk 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 rny head
With oil; n1y cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow 1ne
All the days of my life; and I will dwell In the house of the Lord for ever. Amen.
