⁹The Lord is good to all,
   and his compassion is over all that he has made.

¹⁰All your works shall give thanks to you, O Lord,
   and all your faithful shall bless you.

   and the glorious splendour of your^* kingdom.
¹³Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
   and your dominion endures throughout all generations.

The Lord is faithful in all his words,
   and gracious in all his deeds.^*
