8:1  {To the chief Musician. Upon the Gittith. A Psalm of David.} Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy majesty above the heavens.

8:2  Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established praise because of thine adversaries, to still the enemy and the avenger.

8:3  When I see thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and stars, which thou hast established;

8:4  What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

8:5  Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and splendour.

8:6  Thou hast made him to rule over the works of thy hands; thou hast put everything under his feet:

8:7  Sheep and oxen, all of them, and also the beasts of the field;

8:8  The fowl of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, [whatever] passeth through the paths of the seas.

8:9  Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
