| 1A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. | 1A psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. |
| 2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. | 2He takes me to lush pastures, he leads me to refreshing water. |
| 3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. | 3He restores my strength. He leads me down the right paths for the sake of his reputation. |
| 4Yea, 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. | 4Even when I must walk through the darkest valley, I fear no danger, for you are with me; your rod and your staff reassure me. |
| 5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. | 5You prepare a feast before me in plain sight of my enemies. You refresh my head with oil; my cup is completely full. |
| 6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. | 6Surely your goodness and faithfulness will pursue me all my days, and I will live in the LORD's house for the rest of my life. |
