- Chapter 23 -

The Lord is my shepherd

(Ezekiel 34:11-24; John 10:1-21)
1
A Psalme of David. The Lord is my shepheard, I shall not want.
2
He maketh me to rest in greene pasture, and leadeth me by the still waters.
3
He restoreth my soule, and leadeth me in the paths of righteousnesse for his Names sake.
4
Yea, though I should walke through the valley of the shadowe of death, I will feare no euill: for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staffe, they comfort me.
5
Thou doest prepare a table before me in the sight of mine aduersaries: thou doest anoynt mine head with oyle, and my cuppe runneth ouer.
6
Doubtlesse kindnesse and mercie shall follow me all the dayes of my life, and I shall remaine a long season in the house of the Lord.
