¹⁵ The eyes of all look to thee,
    and thou givest them their food in due season.
¹⁶ Thou openest thy hand,
    thou satisfiest the desire of every living thing.
¹⁷ The Lord is just in all his ways,
    and kind in all his doings.
¹⁸ The Lord is near to all who call upon him,
    to all who call upon him in truth.
¹⁹ He fulfils the desire of all who fear him,
    he also hears their cry, and saves them.
²⁰ The Lord preserves all who love him;
    but all the wicked he will destroy.
