←Prev   Psalms 8 as rendered by/in  Next→ 



8:1  LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! You set your glory above the heavens!
8:2  Out of the mouths of infants and nursing babies you have established strength on account of your adversaries, in order to silence the enemy and vengeful foe.
8:3  When I look at the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars that you established—
8:4  what is man that you take notice of him, or the son of man that you pay attention to him?
8:5  You made him a little less than divine, but you crowned him with glory and honor.
8:6  You gave him dominion over the work of your hands, you put all things under his feet:
8:7  Sheep and cattle—all of them, wild creatures of the field,
8:8  birds in the sky, fish in the sea— whatever moves through the currents of the oceans.
8:9  LORD, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth!
