8
1 “For the leader of the music; to be accompanied with the gittith. A psalm of David.” O Jehovah, our Lord! How excellent is thy name in all the earth! Thou hast set thy glory above the heavens. 2 Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained praise, To put thine adversaries to shame, And to silence the enemy and avenger. 3 When 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 carest for him? 5 Yet thou hast made him little lower than God; Thou hast crowned him with glory and honor. 6 Thou hast given him dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet,— 7 All sheep and oxen, Yea, and the beasts of the forest; 8 The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, And whatever passeth through the paths of the deep. 9 O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth!
