Chapter 8
Psalms
Verse 1O LORD, our Lord,how majestic is your name in all the earth!You have set your glory above the heavens.Verse 2Out of the mouth of babies and infants,you have established strength because of your foes,to still the enemy and the avenger.Verse 3When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,Verse 4what is man that you are mindful of him,and the son of man that you care for him?Verse 5Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beingsand crowned him with glory and honor.Verse 6You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;you have put all things under his feet,Verse 7all sheep and oxen,and also the beasts of the field,Verse 8the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,whatever passes along the paths of the seas.Verse 9O LORD, our Lord,how majestic is your name in all the earth!
