Psalm 23. Dominus regit me.

1. THE Lord is my shepherd; *
   therefore can I lack nothing.
2. He shall feed me in a green pasture, *
   and lead me forth beside the waters of comfort.
3. He shall convert my soul, *
   and bring me forth in the paths of righteousness for his Name's sake.
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 comfort me.
5. Thou shalt prepare a table before me in the presence of them that trouble me; *
   thou hast anointed my head with oil, and my cup shall be full.
6. Surely thy loving-kindness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; *
   and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
