The 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 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. Surley goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
