"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 names sake. Tea, though I walk through the valley ofthe shadow ofdeath, I willfear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in thepresence ofmine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shallfollow me all the days ofmy life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever."
