The Lord Is My Shepherd I Shall Not Want

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want is the opening verse of the 23rd Psalm in the Bible, which is found in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible and the Tanakh of Judaism. This verse is a declaration of trust in God's provision and care, with the speaker expressing contentment and security under God's guidance. The phrase "I shall not want" can be understood as a statement of satisfaction and sufficiency, indicating that the speaker lacks no good thing under God's care. In Hebrew, this verse is translated as "יהוה רעי, לא אכסיר" (Yahweh ro'i, lo ekhsir). The Psalm has been widely translated into many languages, with notable translations including the Latin "Dominus regit me, et nihil mihi deerit" and the German "Der Herr ist mein Hirte, mir wird nichts mangeln". This verse is often quoted or referenced in religious contexts, literature, and cultural references, highlighting its enduring significance and resonance across different traditions and languages.
