1  The Lord is my ^dshepherd; I shall not ^ewant.

2  He makes me lie down in green ^fpastures.

He leads me beside still waters.¹

3  He ^grestores my soul.

He ^hleads me in ⁱpaths of righteousness²

for his ^jname’s sake.

4  Even though I ^kwalk through the valley of ^lthe shadow of death,³

I will ^mfear no evil,

for ⁿyou are with me;

your ^orod and your staff,

they comfort me.

5  You ^pprepare a table before me

in ^qthe presence of my enemies;

you ^ranoint my head with oil;

my ^scup overflows.

6  Surely⁴ goodness and mercy⁵ shall follow me

all the days of my life,

and I shall ^tdwell⁶ in the house of the Lord

^uforever.⁷

13  But we your people, the ^csheep of your pasture,

will ^dgive thanks to you forever;

from generation to generation we will recount your praise.
