For why though I shall go in the midst of shadow of death; I shall not dread evils, for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff; those have comforted me. (For though I go in the midst of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil; for thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they have comforted me.)

Thou hast made ready a board in my sight; against them that trouble me. Thou hast made fat mine head with oil; and my cup, that filleth greatly, is full clear. (Thou hast prepared a table before me; before those who trouble me. Thou hast covered my head with oil; and my cup, which thou greatly filleth, is full, indeed it runneth over.)

And thy mercy shall follow me; in all the days of my life. And that I dwell in the house of the Lord; into the length of days. (And thy love shall follow me; all the days of my life. And I shall live in the House of the Lord forever and ever.)

Even though I walk
    through the darkest valley,[a](A)
I will fear no evil,(B)
    for you are with me;(C)
your rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

You prepare a table(D) before me
    in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;(E)
    my cup(F) overflows.
Surely your goodness and love(G) will follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
    forever.
