You may be interested in reading the book, A Shepherd Looks at Psalm 23 by Phillip Keller (a shepherd himself). In the book, Keller describes each verse of Psalm 23 by comparing it to the life of sheep and a shepherd.
To imprecate means 'to pray evil against' or 'to invoke a curse upon'. Therefore the Psalm requests a 'curse' on those who are enemies of God. These Psalms are 7-35-55-59-69-79-109-137 and 139. An example from an Imprecatory Psalm reads 'may they be blotted out of the Book of Life and not be listed with the righteous'
