Psalms 145:15
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and Your dominion endures through all generations. The LORD is faithful in all His words and kind in all His actions.
14 The LORD upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.
The eyes of all look to You, and You give them their food in season.
16 You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.
17 The LORD is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
