1  The Lord is my ^bshepherd; ^cI shall not want.

2  He makes me lie down in ^dgreen pastures.

He ^eleads me beside still waters.¹

3  He ^frestores my soul.

He ^gleads me in ^hpaths of righteousness²

ⁱfor his name’s sake.

4  ^jEven though I walk through the valley of the ^kshadow of death,³

I will fear no evil,

for you are ^lwith me;

your rod and your staff,

they comfort me.

5  You prepare a ^mtable before me

in the presence of my enemies;

you anoint my head with oil;

my cup overflows.

6  Surely⁴ goodness and mercy⁵ shall follow me

all the days of my life,

and I shall ⁿdwell⁶ in the house of the Lord

forever.⁷

1  ^oThe earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof,¹

^pthe world and those who dwell therein,

2  for he has founded it upon the seas

and established it upon the rivers.

3  ^qWho shall ascend the hill of the Lord?

And who shall stand in his holy place?

4  He who has ^rclean hands and a ^spure heart,

who does not lift up his soul to what is false

and does not swear deceitfully.

5  He will receive blessing from the Lord

and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6  Such is the generation of those who seek him,

who ^tseek the face of the God of Jacob.² Selah

7  Lift up your heads, O gates!

And be lifted up, O ancient doors,

that the King of glory may come in.

8  Who is this King of glory?

The Lord, strong and mighty,

the Lord, ^umighty in battle!

9  Lift up your heads, O gates!

And lift them up, O ancient doors,

that the King of glory may come in.

10  Who is this King of glory?

The Lord of hosts,

he is the King of glory! Selah
