Psalms 8

1 Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy majesty above the heavens.

1O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established praise because of thine adversaries, to still the enemy and the avenger.

2Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.

3 When I see thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and stars, which thou hast established;

3When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

4What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

5 Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and splendour.

5For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

6 Thou hast made him to rule over the works of thy hands; thou hast put everything under his feet:

6Thou madest 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, and also the beasts of the field;

7All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;

8 The fowl of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea, [whatever] passeth through the paths of the seas.

8The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.

9 Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!

9O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
