8:1  For the director. “Upon the gittith.” A psalm of David.
8:2  O Lord, our Lord, how glorious is your name in all the earth! You have exalted your majesty above the heavens.
8:3  Out of the mouths of newborn babes and infants you have brought forth praise as a bulwark against your foes, to silence the enemy and the avenger.
8:4  When I look up at your heavens that have been formed by your fingers, the moon and the stars that you set in place,
8:5  what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?
8:6  You have made him a little less than the angels and crowned him with glory and honor.
8:7  You have given him dominion over the works of your hands and placed everything under his feet:
8:8  all sheep and oxen as well as the beasts of the field,
8:9  the birds of the air, the fish of the sea, and whatever swims in the paths of the sea.
8:10  O Lord, our Lord, how glorious is your name in all the earth!
