‏ Psalms 8

1For the end, concerning the wine presses, a Psalm of David. O Lord, our Lord, how wonderfulis your name in all the earth! for your magnificence is exalted above the heavens.
2Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings have you perfected praise, because of yourenemies; that you might put down the enemy and avenger.
3For I will regard the heavens, the work of your fingers; the moon and stars, whichyou have established.
4What is man, that you are mindful of him? or the son of man, that you visit him?
5You made him a little less than angels, you have crowned him with glory and honor;
6and you have set him over the works of your hands: you have put all things underhis feet:
7sheep and all oxen, yes and the cattle of the field;
8the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea, thecreatures passing through the paths of the sea.
9O Lord our Lord, how wonderful is your name in all the earth!
