It reads: "I will be strong and courageous. I will not be terrified, or discouraged; for the Lord my God is with me wherever I go." --Joshua 1:9

The very same in return!
It’s tough to beat the reference in the movie “Zulu” to Psalm 46:
Mr. Witt: I was praying that your officer may turn to God’s word.
Colour Sergeant Bourne: That’s right, sir. A prayer’s as good as a bayonet on a day like this.
Witt: Have you prayed?
Bourne: There’ll be a time for it, sir.
Witt: What will you say?
Bourne: Oh, a bit of the Psalms, I suppose, sir. My father was a lay preacher. Great one for the Psalms, he was. There was one - well, it might have been written for a soldier.
Witt: Say it, man! Lift your voice to God.
Bourne: Now, sir?
Witt: Let them hear your voice. (He gestures toward the troops.)
Bourne: They’ll know my voice when they hear it, sir.
Witt: Let them hear it now, in praise of the Lord. Call upon Him - call upon Him, man, for your salvation!
Bourne: Well, as far as I can remember, sir, it goes something like this: “He maketh wars to cease in all the world. He breaketh the bow and snappeth the spear in sunder.” Do you know it, sir?
Witt: “I shall be exalted among the heathen, I shall be exalted in the earth. The Lord of Hosts is with us.”
