King James Version KJV
Good News Translation GNT
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
1
The Lord is my shepherd; I have everything I need.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
2
He lets me rest in fields of green grass and leads me to quiet pools of fresh water.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
3
He gives me new strength. He guides me in the right paths, as he has promised.
4 Yea, 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
4
Even if I go through the deepest darkness, I will not be afraid, Lord, for you are with me. Your shepherd's rod and staff protect me
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
5
You prepare a banquet for me, where all my enemies can see me; you welcome me as an honored guest and fill my cup to the brim.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
6
I know that your goodness and love will be with me all my life; and your house will be my home as long as I live.
