A PSALM OF DAVID ///
God is my shepherd; there is nothing I lack.
You lay me down in lush meadows.
You guide me toward tranquil waters, reviving my soul.
You lead me down paths of righteousness, for that is your way.
And when I walk through the valley, overshadowed by death,
I will fear no harm, for you are with me.
Your rod and staff -- they comfort me.
You spread a table before me
in face of my greatest fears.
You drench my head with oil;
my cup overflows the brim.
Surely goodness and kindness
will accompany me all the days of my life
and I will dwell in the house of the Holy
for the length of my days.
[ The Complete Psalms: The Book of Prayer Songs in a New Translation ]
