Psalm 23 - Reading

¹ The Lord is my shepherd;     I have all that I need. ² He lets me rest in green meadows;     he leads me beside peaceful streams. ³     He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths,     bringing honor to his name. ⁴ Even when I walk     through the darkest valley,^[a] I will not be afraid,     for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff     protect and comfort me. ⁵ You prepare a feast for me     in the presence of my enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with oil.     My cup overflows with blessings. ⁶ Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me     all the days of my life, and I will live in the house of the Lord     forever.
