Psalm 23

Select Translation

1 A Psalm for David on the first day of the week. The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; The world, and all that dwell in it.
2 He has founded it upon the seas, And prepared it upon the rivers.
3 Who shall go up to the mountain of the Lord, And who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that is innocent in his hands and pure in his heart; Who has not lifted up his soul to vanity, Nor sworn deceitfully to his neighbor.
5 He shall receive a blessing from the Lord, And mercy from God his Savior.
6 This is the generation of them that seek him, That seek the face of the God of Jacob. Pause.
7 Lift up your gates, ye princes, And be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors; And the king of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this king of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, The Lord mighty in battle.
9 Lift up your gates, ye princes; And be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; And the king of glory shall come in.
10 Who is this king of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is this king of glory.

About Psalms 23

The best-known psalm in the Bible pictures the LORD as a shepherd who provides green pastures, still waters, and a restored soul — and who walks with His sheep even through the valley of the shadow of death. It closes at a table prepared in the presence of enemies, an overflowing cup, and the confidence of dwelling in the house of the LORD forever.
