How English has changed over the last 1000 years: the 23rd Psalm Modern (1989) The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He lets me lie down in green pastures. He leads me to still waters. King James Bible (1611) The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still waters. Middle English (1100-1500) Our Lord gouerneth me, and nothyng shal defailen to me. In the sted of pastur he sett me ther. He norissed me upon water of fyllyng. Old English (800-1066) Drihten me raet, ne byth me nanes godes wan. And he me geset on swythe good feohland. And fedde me be waetera stathum.
