Psalm 23
Darby Translation · 6 verses
A Psalm of David.
1Jehovah is my shepherd; I shall not want.2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; he leadeth me beside still waters.3He restoreth my soul; he leadeth me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.4Yea, 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, they comfort me.5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou hast anointed my head with oil; my cup runneth over.6Surely, goodness and loving-kindness shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of Jehovah for the length of the days.Darby's Synopsis
Psalm 23, and Psalm 24 go in a certain sense by themselves, giving the perfect confidence in the Shepherd, Jehovah, founded on the experience of what He is in all circumstances; and, secondly, the character of those who would have a part with Jacob.
