1  The Lord is my ^dshepherd; I shall not ^ewant.

2  He makes me lie down in green ^fpastures.

He leads me beside still waters.¹

3  He ^grestores my soul.

He ^hleads me in ⁱpaths of righteousness²

for his ^jname’s sake.

4  Even though I ^kwalk through the valley of ^lthe shadow of death,³

I will ^mfear no evil,

for ⁿyou are with me;

your ^orod and your staff,

they comfort me.

5  You ^pprepare a table before me

in ^qthe presence of my enemies;

you ^ranoint my head with oil;

my ^scup overflows.

6  Surely⁴ goodness and mercy⁵ shall follow me

all the days of my life,

and I shall ^tdwell⁶ in the house of the Lord

^uforever.⁷

1  O Lord, ^wrebuke me not in your anger,

nor ^xdiscipline me in your wrath.

2  Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing;

^yheal me, O Lord, ^zfor my bones are troubled.

3  My ^asoul also is greatly troubled.

But you, O Lord—^bhow long?

4  Turn, O Lord, deliver my life;

save me for the sake of your steadfast love.

5  For in ^cdeath there is no remembrance of you;

in Sheol who will give you praise?

6  I am ^dweary with my ^emoaning;

every night I flood my bed with tears;

I drench my couch with my weeping.

7  My ^feye wastes away because of grief;

it grows weak because of all my foes.

8  ^gDepart from me, all you ^hworkers of evil,

for the Lord ⁱhas heard the sound of my weeping.

9  The Lord has heard my ^jplea;

the Lord accepts my prayer.

10  All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled;

they shall ^kturn back and be put to shame in a moment.
