and w Your wonderful works. x

They will proclaim the power of Your awe-inspiring acts,

and I will declare Your greatness. y z

the e godly will praise You. f

15 All eyes look to You,

and You give them their food at the proper time. o

16 You open Your hand

and satisfy the desire of every living thing. p

17 The Lord is righteous in all His ways

and gracious in all His acts. q

18 The Lord is near all who call out to Him,

all who call out to Him with integrity. r

19 He fulfills the desires of those who * fear Him;

He hears their cry for help and saves them. s

20 The Lord guards all those who love Him,

but He destroys all the wicked. t

21 My mouth will declare Yahweh’s praise;

let every living thing

praise His holy name forever and ever. u
