1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4Yea, 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. 5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6αυτη η γενεα ζητουντων αυτον ζητουντων το προϲωπον του θυ ιακωβʼ διαψαλμα 7αρατε πυλαϲ οι αρχοντεϲ ϋμων και επαρθητε πυλαι αιωνιοι και ειϲελευϲεται ο βαϲιλευϲ τηϲ δοξηϲ 8τιϲ εϲτιν ουτοϲ ο βαϲιλευϲ τηϲ δοξηϲ κϲ κραταιοϲ και δυνατοϲ κϲ δυνατοϲ εν πολεμω 9αρατε πυλαϲ οι αρχοντεϲ υμων και επαρθητε πυλαι αιωνιοι και ειϲελευϲεται ο βαϲιλευϲ τηϲ δοξηϲ 10τιϲ εϲτιν ουτοϲ ο βαϲιλευϲ τηϲ δοξηϲ κϲ των δυναμεων αυτοϲ εϲτιν ουτοϲ ο βαϲιλευϲ τηϲ δοξηϲ
6Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
