Even when I go through the darkest valley,[a]
I fear no danger,
for you are with me;(A)
your rod and your staff—they comfort me.(B)

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;(C)
my cup overflows.(D)
Only goodness and faithful love will pursue me
all the days of my life,(E)
and I will dwell in[b] the house of the Lord
as long as I live.[c](F)
