15 All of the creatures that you made expect that you [will provide food for them], and you give them food when they need it.

The eyes of all wait for you; you give them their food at the right time.

16 You give food to all living creatures generously [IDM], and you cause them to (be satisfied/have all the food that they need).

You open your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.
