God Will Forgive Israel

The flock of Your heritage,
Who dwell [a]solitarily in a (A)woodland,
In the midst of Carmel;
Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead,
As in days of old.

The Lord the Shepherd of His People

A Psalm of David.

23 The Lord is (A)my shepherd;
(B)I shall not [a]want.

He restores my soul;
(E)He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of (F)the shadow of death,
(G)I will fear no evil;
(H)For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
