About This Prayer
Psalm 23 is one of the most beloved passages in Sacred Scripture, presenting God as the Good Shepherd who lovingly guides, protects, and provides for His people. It speaks to the deep trust between the believer and God, reminding us that even in moments of darkness or uncertainty, the Lord remains close. For Catholics, Psalm 23 is often prayed as an expression of confidence in God’s providence, mercy, and eternal care.
The Prayer
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want;
he makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters, he restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil; for you are with me;
your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
