# Psalm 23 (New King James Version)
The Lord the Shepherd of His People

##### Chapter 23
###### 1 The Lord _is_ my shepherd;  
I shall not want.  

###### 2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;  
He leads me beside the still waters.  

###### 3 He restores my soul;  
He leads me in the paths of righteousness  
For His name's sake.

###### 4 Yea, 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.

###### 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;  
You anoint my head with oil;  
My cup runs over.  

###### 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me  
All the days of my life;  
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord  
Forever.
