Matildamae Rohlfing

The Twenty-Third Psalm 

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 leadeth me in the paths of righteousness

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 anointest my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow me all the days of my life
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
for ever.
