I only have the "Good News" Bible
This is what psalms 23 says.
The Lord is my shepherd,
I have everything I need
He lets me rest in fields of green grass
and leads me to quiet pools of fresh water
He gives me new strength
He guides me in the right paths
as he has primised.
Even if I go through the deepest darkness
I will not be afraid, LORD,
for you are with me.
You prepare a banquet for me
where all my enemies can see me
you welcome me as an honored guest
and fill my cup to the brim.
I know that your goodness and love
will be with me all my life,
and your house will be my home
as long as I will live.
Nothing resembling "Goodness and mercy" in there, but thanks for the explanation.
