Psalm 22 (Psalm 23 in the Hebrew numbering) / 1st Edition

Psalm 22 (A Psalm by David)

¹ The Lord is my Shepherd, and will deny me nothing.

² He settles me in green pasturage,
and raises me on refreshing water.

³ He converts my soul,
and guides me on the right tracks
for His Name's sake.

⁴ For even though I go through the shadow of death,
I will fear no evils, for Thou art with me.
Thy rod and thy staff comfort me.

⁵ Thou hast prepared a table before me
in the face of those who trouble me.

⁶ Thou hast anointed my head with oil.
And Thy chalice which inebriates me, how glorious it is!

⁷ And Thy mercy will follow me all the days of my life.

⁸ And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
throughout the length of my days.
