| 8:1 |
O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. |
| 8:2 |
From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger. |
| 8:3 |
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, |
| 8:4 |
what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? |
| 8:5 |
You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor. |
| 8:6 |
You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet: |
| 8:7 |
all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, |
| 8:8 |
the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. |
| 8:9 |
O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! |
