< Psalms 8 >

1 For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth! whose majesty is rehearsed above the heavens. 2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast Thou founded strength, because of Thine adversaries; that Thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. 3 When I behold Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast established; 4 What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him? 5 Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. 6 Thou hast made him to have dominion over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under His feet: 7 Sheep and oxen, all of them, yea, and the beasts of the field; 8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea; whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas. 9 O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth!
