Psalm 22 in the Vulgate numbering

¹A psalm of David.
The Lord is my shepherd, and nothing do I want:
²he bids me repose in verdant pastures;
to springs where I may rest he leads me on,
³and there refreshes me.
He leads me onward over safe, straight paths
to manifest his holy name.
⁴And should I cross a gloomy vale,
no evil shall I fear, because you are with me.
Your crook and staff —
they comfort me.

⁵You spread for me a feast
for all my foes to see;
and you anoint my head with oil;
my cup is full up to the brim.
⁶Kindness and grace will wait on me
through all the days of my life;
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
forever and evermore.
