23:3 He restores my strength.

He leads me down the right paths

for the sake of his reputation.

I fear no danger,

for you are with me;

your rod and your staff reassure me.

Psalms 41:7-8

‘An awful disease overwhelms him,

and now that he is bed-ridden he will never recover.’

Psalms 66:10-12

66:10 For you, O God, tested us;

you purified us like refined silver.

66:11 You led us into a trap;

you caused us to suffer.

66:12 You allowed men to ride over our heads;

we passed through fire and water,

but you brought us out into a wide open place.

I will surely defend my ways to his face!

and that as the last

he will stand upon the earth.

yet in my flesh I will see God,

Isaiah 57:16

57:16 For I will not be hostile forever

or perpetually angry,

for then man’s spirit would grow faint before me,

the life-giving breath I created.
