Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

"He affirmed and sustained it" is understood (deduced) from the context. The italic "and" alerts the reader or student of Hebrew that the word or words that follow are amplifications not found in the Hebrew text itself, but implied by it or by contextual factors.
