New Living Translation

Psalms • Chapter 23

1 The LORD is my shepherd;<br>I have all that I need.<br> 2 He lets me rest in green meadows;<br>he leads me beside peaceful streams.<br> 3 He renews my strength.<br>He guides me along right paths,<br>bringing honor to his name.<br> 4 Even when I walk<br>through the darkest valley,<br>I will not be afraid,<br>for you are close beside me.<br>Your rod and your staff<br>protect and comfort me.<br> 5 You prepare a feast for me<br>in the presence of my enemies.<br>You honor me by anointing my head with oil.<br>My cup overflows with blessings.<br> 6 Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me<br>all the days of my life,<br>and I will live in the house of the LORD<br>forever.<br>
