Even when the way goes through
    Death Valley,
I’m not afraid
    when you walk at my side.
Your trusty shepherd’s crook
    makes me feel secure.

You serve me a six-course dinner
    right in front of my enemies.
You revive my drooping head;
    my cup brims with blessing.

Your beauty and love chase after me
    every day of my life.
I’m back home in the house of God
    for the rest of my life.

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.
