Psalm 23 :: Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

The Good Shepherd

A psalm of David.

¶

The LORD is my shepherd;

I have what I need.

¶

He lets me lie down in green pastures;

he leads me beside quiet waters.

¶

He renews my life;

he leads me along the right paths[fn]

for his name’s sake.

¶

Even when I go through the darkest valley,[fn]

I fear no danger,

for you are with me;

your rod and your staff — they comfort me.

¶

You prepare a table before me

in the presence of my enemies;

you anoint my head with oil;

my cup overflows.

¶

Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me

all the days of my life,

and I will dwell in[fn] the house of the LORD

as long as I live.[fn]
