    “The mountain sheep are sweeter,
    But the valley sheep are fatter;

    To carry off the latter.”

    “The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
    The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
    The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; he shall preserve thy
    soul.
    The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm CXXI (l. CXXI, 5–8)
