Psalms 23

KING JAMES BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.	1 A psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.	2 In green pastures you let me graze; to safe waters you lead me;
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.	3 you restore my strength. You guide me along the right path for the sake of your name.
4 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.	4 Even when I walk through a dark valley, I fear no harm for you are at my side; your rod and staff give me courage.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.	5 You set a table before me as my enemies watch; You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.	6 Only goodness and love will pursue me all the days of my life; I will dwell in the house of the LORD for years to come.
