26 The poor[a] shall eat and be satisfied;
    those who seek him shall praise the Lord.
    May your hearts live forever!

27 All the ends of the earth shall remember
    and turn to the Lord;
and all the families of the nations
    shall worship before him.[b]
28 For dominion belongs to the Lord,
    and he rules over the nations.

29 To him,[c] indeed, shall all who sleep in[d] the earth bow down;
    before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,
    and I shall live for him.[e]
30 Posterity will serve him;
    future generations will be told about the Lord,
31 and[f] proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn,
    saying that he has done it.
