Psalm talks about talks about being safe in the shadow of God’s wings and about thinking of God
Local media describes Helio, who is still in critical condition in hospital, as a deeply religious person who always takes the scared book with him wherever he goes.
Semione commented on her husband’s faith and habit to take the bible everywhere:
A bookmark had been inserted next to Psalm 63, which reads in part: “On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night; Because you have been my help.
Then I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings. My soul follows you closely; Your right hand upholds me.”
“It’s the first thing he takes when he travels, and here are his annotations, I’m very grateful to have it back.”
