‏ Psalms 23

1 A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside ^▼▼1 still waters. ^{▼▼1) Heb waters of rest} 3 He restoreth my soul: He guideth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Yea, thou I walk through the valley of ^▼▼1 the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. ^{▼▼1) Or deep darkness (and so elsewhere)} 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup runneth over. 6 ^▼▼1 Surely goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life; And I shall dwell in the house of Jehovah ^▼▼2 for ever. ^{▼▼1) Or Only 2) Heb for length of days}
