The LORD is my shepherd

I shall not want



he makes me lie down in green pastures.



He leads me beside still waters;



he restores my soul.



He leads me in paths of righteousness


for his name's sake.



Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,


I fear no evil;

for thou art with me;

thy rod and thy staff,



they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;




thou anointest my head with oil,




my cup overflows.




Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me


all the days of my life;


and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD




for ever.




Psalm 23
The Responsorial Psalm for today's Mass
