Psalms of David - Modern Translation - Psalm 23

 The Lord is my Shepherd; I have everything I need.

You lead me to peaceful waters,
where my soul finds rest.

You guide me along paths of wisdom,
showing me the way of love and truth.

Even when I walk through the deepest shadows,
I will not be afraid, for You are with me.

Your hand comforts me, Your presence strengthens me.

You prepare a table before me,
a feast of abundance and grace.

You anoint my head with oil,
my heart overflows with joy.

Surely, Your goodness and mercy will follow me
throughout all time,
and I will dwell in Your love forever.
