13 Your kingdom will last forever,
    and your dominion will endure throughout all generations.[a]
[b]The Lord is faithful in all his promises
    and kind[c] in all his deeds.

    and raises up all who are bowed down.[d]
15 The eyes of all look hopefully to you,
    and you give them their food at the right time.
