Psalm 23 good news version

Here is Psalm 23 in the Good News Bible (GNB):

Psalm 23

  1. The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
  2. He makes me lie down in green pastures; he leads me beside quiet waters.
  3. He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.
  4. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me.
  5. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.
  6. Only goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
