Psalm 23

1A song of David;
Yahweh is my shepherd, I shall not lack.
2He lies me down in a pasture of fresh grass,
To a resting place with waters, he leads me.
3My life, he restores;
He leads me along righteous paths,
Because of his reputation.
4Even though I walk in a valley of darkness,
May I not fear evil;
For you are my company,
Your staff and your cane
They console me.
5May you set before me a table opposite my enemies;
May you accept oil on my forehead,
My cup is overflowing.
6Only good and unconditional love will persecute me,
All the days of my life;
May I rest in the house of Yahweh,
For the length of my days.

Again, this is a little rough and literal.

I was provoked into looking into this because my mom asked me a question from the superquiz in the paper a few weeks ago.

Q: What are the first five words of psalm 23?
A1: The Lord is my shepherd
A2: Mizmor l'David Adonai ro'i lo' (A-psalm of-David the/our-Lord my-shepherd not)
