8:1 To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is thy name in all the earth! Thou whose glory above the heavens is chanted |
8:2 by the mouth of babes and infants, thou hast founded a bulwark because of thy foes, to still the enemy and the avenger. |
8:3 When I look at thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars which thou hast established; |
8:4 what is man that thou art mindful of him, and the son of man that thou dost care for him? |
8:5 Yet thou hast made him little less than God, and dost crown him with glory and honor. |
8:6 Thou hast given him dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet, |
8:7 all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, |
8:8 the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the sea. |
8:9 O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is thy name in all the earth! |
