Not By Bread Alone, But By Bread As Well

Shamelessly pinched from American Digest, who got it from wsj.

Impossible to overstate how much I love this photo. There are three comforts pictured: low, higher and highest: the cig, the hand of a friend, and the presence of God.
Staff Sgt. Edward Rosa reads the Bible and extends a cigarette to Pfc. Jorge Rostra Obando, who was stunned by an explosion in Afghanistan’s Arghanab Valley. One comrade was killed and two injured in the blast. Pfc. Rostran asked the sergeant to read Psalm 91, a favorite from his childhood.
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High 
shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: 
my God; in him will I trust.
 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
and from the noisome pestilence.
 He shall cover thee with his feathers, 
and under his wings shalt thou trust: 
his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; 
nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; 
nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
 A thousand shall fall at thy side, 
and ten thousand at thy right hand; 
but it shall not come nigh thee.
 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold 
and see the reward of the wicked.
 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, 
even the most High, thy habitation;
 There shall no evil befall thee, 
neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, 
to keep thee in all thy ways.
 They shall bear thee up in their hands, 
lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: 
the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: 
I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: 
I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

That's the one the hug lady gives to every soldier departing for harm's way.
