Psalm 8:1-9
1 O Yahweh, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth, Who displays Your splendor above the heavens!
2 From the mouth of infants and nursing babies You have established strength Because of Your adversaries, To make the enemy and the revengeful cease.
3 When I see Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have established;
4 What is man that You remember him, And the son of man that You care for him?
5 Yet You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You crown him with glory and majesty!
6 You make him to rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
7 All sheep and oxen, And also the animals of the field,
8 The birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea, Whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
