Read the following: The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want; he makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters; he restores [return to a former condition] my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff [walking stick], they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies; thou anointest [rub into a part of the body as part of a religious ceremony] my head with oil, my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
