"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. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth
me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea,
though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and
mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. "
