Psalm 8
For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David.
[8:1] Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth, who has set your glory above the heavens! [8:2] From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger. [8:3] When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained; [8:4] what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him? [8:5] For you have made him a little lower than [God,] and crowned him with glory and honor. [8:6] You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet: [8:7] All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field, [8:8] The birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas. [8:9] Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
