BECAUSE THE L-RD IS MY SHEPHERD
PSALM 23

Because The L-RD is my Shepherd,

I shall not lack any provision of needs in my life.

Because He makes me lie down in green pastures,

I shall not lack nourishment.

Because He leads me beside quiet waters,

I shall not lack rest.

Because He restores my soul,

I shall not lack forgiveness and restoration.

Because He guides me in the paths of righteousness for His name sake,

I shall not lack a right relationship with G-d.

Because I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, and

I shall not lack encouragement and hope.

Because Thou art with me,

I shall not lack for a constant companion - His Presence is with me always.

Because Thy rod and Thy staff comfort me,

I shall not lack guidance and protection.

Because Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies,

I shall not lack honor and respect.

Because Thou hast anointed my head with oil,

I shall not lack power and authority,

Because My cup overflows,

I shall not lack joy, and abundant life.

Because goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,

I shall not lack contentment.

Because I dwell in the house of the L-RD forever,

I shall not lack assurance of eternal security.
