An illustrated version of
Psalm 23, from
The Sunday at Home, a 19th-century compendium of religious texts. Originally included in the
Hebrew Bible, the
psalm is popular among both Jews and Christians, is often alluded to in popular media and has been set to music. The most widely recognized version of the psalm in English today is undoubtedly the one shown here, drawn from the
King James Bible.
