In these days of increasing sophistication in our language, and
jargon which overflows into almost every area of our lives, we feel sure
that by the year 2000 a new millennium version of the Bible will have
been produced incorporating much of this modern language – perhaps it
will be called the NMV New Millennium Version. and the 23rd Psalm could
never be the same again – It may sound something like this…

The Lord and I are in a shepherd – sheep situation, and I am in a
position of negative need

He prostrates me in a green belt grazing area, and conducts me
directionally parallel to a non-torrential aqueous liquid.

He restores to original satisfaction levels my psychological make
up.

Notwithstanding the fact that I make ambulatory progress through the
non-illuminated inter-hill mortality slot.. terror sensations shall not
be observed within me due to the proximity of the omnipotence.

Your pastoral walking aid and quadruped pickup unit introduce me
into a pleasurific mood state.

You design and produce a nutrient bearing furniture type structure
in the context of non-cooperative elements, and my beverage utensil
experiences a volume crisis.

You enact ahead related folk ritual utilising vegetable extracts.

Surely it must be an ongoing non-deductible fact that your
inter-relational, emphatical and non-vengeful capacities will pursue me
as their target focus for the duration of this non death period.

And I will possess tenant rights in the housing unit of the Lord on
a permanently open ended time basis.
