PSALM 23: Two translations

KING JAMES VERSION	NEW JERUSALEM BIBLE
The Lord is my shepherd.	Yahweh is my shepherd,
I shall not want.	I lack nothing.
.	.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.	In meadows of green grass he lets me lie.
He leadeth me beside the still waters.	To the waters of repose he leads me;
He restoreth my soul.	there he revives my soul.
.	.
He guideth me in the paths of virtue	He guides me by paths of virtue
for his name's sake.	for the sake of his name.
.	.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,	Though I pass through a gloomy valley,
I shall fear no evil.	I fear no harm;
Thy rod and thy staff	beside me your rod and your staff
they comfort me.	are there, to hearten me.
.	.
Thou preparest a table before me	You prepare a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies.	under the eyes of my enemies;
Thou anointest my head with oil.	You anoint my head with oil,
My cup runneth over.	my cup brims over.
.	.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me	Ah, how goodness and kindness pursue me,
all the days of my life,	every day of my life;
And I shall dwell in the House of the Lord	my home, the House of Yahweh,
forever.	as long as I live.
