Psalms 8

Jehovah’s glory and man’s dignity.

For the Chief Musician; set to the Gittith. A Psalm of David.

¹Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth, Who has set your glory above the heavens!

²From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, Because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

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

⁴What is man, that you think of him? The son of man, that you care for him?

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

⁶You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

⁷All sheep and oxen, Yes, and the animals of the field,

⁸The birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, And whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

⁹Yahweh, our Lord, How majestic is your name in all the earth!
