PSALM 23: A Psalm of David

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul;
He guideth me in straight paths for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will 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 mine enemies;
Thou hast anointed my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life;
And I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

PSALM 121 A Song of Ascents

I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains:
From whence shall my help come?
My help cometh from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved;
He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, He that keepeth Israel
Doth neither slumber nor sleep.
The LORD is thy keeper;
The LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day,
Nor the moon by night.
The LORD shall keep thee from all evil;
He shall keep thy soul.
The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in,
From this time forth and for ever.

PSALM 130 A Song of Ascents

Out of the depths have I called Thee, O LORD.
LORD, hearken unto my voice;
Let Thine ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.
Thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?
For with Thee there is foregiveness,
That Thou mayest be feared.
I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait,
And in His word do I hope.
My soul waiteth for the LORD,
More than watchmen for the morning;
Yea, more than watchmen for the morning.
Israel, hope in the LORD;
For with the LORD there is mercy,
And with Him is plenteous redemption.
And He will redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
