King David says

The King of Kings says

 

The Lord is my shepherd;

I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep

I shall not want.

whoever enters through me will be saved.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:

They will come in and go out, and find pasture.

he leadeth me beside the still waters.

whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.

He restoreth my soul:

Celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.

he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Now is your time of grief,

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.

I will fear no evil:

Take heart! I have overcome the world.

Peace I leave with you

For thou art with me;

My peace I give you.

thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:

My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.

The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised,

Thou anointest my head with oil;

and the good news is proclaimed to the poor.

I have come that they may have life,

my cup runneth over.

and have it to the full.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:

Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.

and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die.
