Tehillim 23 - The Orthodox Jewish Bible(TOJB2011)

1(Mizmor of Dovid)

1 Hashem is my Ro'eh (Shepherd);

I shall not lack.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;

He leadeth me beside the mei menuchot (tranquil waters).

3He restoreth my nefesh;

He guideth me in the paths of tzedek l'ma'an Shmo

(righteousness for the sake of His Name).

4Yea, though I walk through the Gey Tzalmavet (Valley of the Shadow of Death),

I will fear no rah (evil);

for Thou art with me;

Thy shevet (rod) and Thy staff they comfort me.

5Thou preparest a shulchan before me

in the presence of mine enemies:

Thou anointest my head with shemen (olive oil);

my kos runneth over.

6Surely tov and chesed shall follow me

kol y'mei chaiyyai (all the days of my life):

and I will dwell in the Bais Hashem

l'orech yamim (for length of days, whole life long, forever).
