Poetry of Psalm 23
Psalm 23.
1 The Lord's my shepherd, I'll not want.
2 He makes me down to lie
In pastures green: he leadeth me
the quiet waters by.
3 My soul he doth restore again;
and me to walk doth make
Within the paths of righteousness,
ev'n for his own name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk in death's dark vale,
yet will I fear none ill:
For thou art with me; and thy rod
and staff me comfort still.
5 My table thou hast furnished
in presence of my foes;
My head thou dost with oil anoint,
and my cup overflows.
6 Goodness and mercy all my life
shall surely follow me:
And in God's house for evermore
my dwelling-place shall be.

23:1 The
LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he
leadeth me beside the still waters.
23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art
with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head
with oil; my cup runneth over.
23:6 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.
