Psalm 23:3-5
International Children’s Bible

3 He gives me new strength.
For the good of his name,
    he leads me on paths that are right.
4 Even if I walk
    through a very dark valley,
I will not be afraid
    because you are with me.
Your rod and your shepherd’s staff comfort me.

5 You prepare a meal for me
    in front of my enemies.
You pour oil of blessing on my head.[a]
    You give me more than I can hold.
