PSALM 23

THE LORD THE SHEPHERD ( International Children's Bible) Biblegateway.com
A song of David.
​23 The Lord is my shepherd.
    I have everything I need.
2 He gives me rest in green pastures.
    He leads me to calm water.
3 He gives me new strength.
For the good of his name,
    he leads me on paths that are right.
4 Even if I walk
    through a very dark valley,
I will not be afraid
    because you are with me.
Your rod and your shepherd’s staff comfort me.
5 You prepare a meal for me
    in front of my enemies.
You pour oil of blessing on my head.
    You give me more than I can hold.
6 Surely your goodness and love will be with me
    all my life.
And I will live in the house of the Lord forever.
