Psalms 8

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

O Jehovah, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth, who has set thy glory upon the heavens!

2 Out of the mouth of babes and infants have you ordained strength because of your enemies, that you might still the enemy and the avenger.

Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou have perfected praise, because of thine adversaries, that thou might still the enemy and the avenger.

3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;

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

4 What is man, that you are mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit him?

what is man that thou remember him? And the son of man that thou succor him?

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

For thou have made him but little lower than agents, and crowned him with glory and honor.

6 You made him to have dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet:

Thou make him to have dominion over the works of thy hands. Thou have put all things under his feet.

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

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

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

the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

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

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