The Lord Is My Shepherd

Name Date

Read the Story

The title says this is a Psalm by David. Yahweh is my shepherd; I shall lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. God prepares a table for David. Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh's house forever.
