Psalm 8:1–9

1  O Lord, our Lord,

how majestic is your qname in all the earth!

You have set your rglory above the heavens.

2  sOut of the mouth of babies and infants,

you have established tstrength because of your foes,

to still uthe enemy and the avenger.

3  When I vlook at your heavens, the work of your wfingers,

the moon and the stars, xwhich you have set in place,

4  ywhat is man that you are zmindful of him,

and athe son of man that you bcare for him?

5  Yet you have made him a little lower than cthe heavenly beings2

and crowned him with dglory and honor.

6  You have given him edominion over the works of your hands;

fyou have put all things under his feet,

7  all sheep and oxen,

and also the beasts of the field,

8  the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,

whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

9  O Lord, our Lord,

how majestic is your name in all the earth!
