| 1A psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. | 1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. |
| 2He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, | 2He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. |
| 3he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake. | 3He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. |
| 4Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. | 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, they comfort me. |
| 5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. | 5You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. |
| 6Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever. | 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever. |
