"The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul;

He leadeth me on the paths of righteousness
for his name's sake,
Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For thou art with me; thy rod
and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
