Psalms 8

LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!

O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth, Who hast set thy glory upon the heavens!

From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, Because of thine adversaries, That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,

When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, The moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?

What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him?

For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.

For thou hast made him but little lower than God, And crownest him with glory and honor.

You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet:

All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,

All sheep and oxen, Yea, and the beasts of the field,

the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

The birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, Whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth!
