The Book of Psalms
8:1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who
hast set thy glory above the heavens.
8:2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained
strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy
and the avenger.
8:3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and
the stars, which thou hast ordained;
8:4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man,
that thou visitest him?
8:5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast
crowned him with glory and honour.
8:6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou
hast put all things under his feet:
8:7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8:8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever
passeth through the paths of the seas.
8:9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
