Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing.

Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing (Psalms 104:28) - literally, 'Thou satisfiest every living thing with their desire' х raatsown (H7522)]: cf. Psalms 145:19. The original passage is Deuteronomy 33:23. The blessing, in its special fullness, belongs to the people of God alone: in a wider sense, all now in some degree enjoy the promiscuous scatterings of His bounty, whereby 'He gives us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness' (Acts 14:17).
