1A melody of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not lack.2He makes me lie down in pastures of grass; he leads me beside waters of rest.3He restores my soul; he leads me in paths of righteousness for the sake of his name.4Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me.5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.6Surely goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
