Psalms

Chapter 8

  1. 1

    Unto the end. For the oil and wine presses. A Psalm of David.

  2. 2

    O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your name throughout all the earth! For your magnificence is elevated above the heavens.

  3. 3

    Out of the mouths of babes and infants, you have perfected praise, because of your enemies, so that you may destroy the enemy and the revenger.

  4. 4

    For I will behold your heavens, the works of your fingers: the moon and the stars, which you have founded.

  5. 5

    What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you visit him?

  6. 6

    You reduced him to a little less than the Angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor,

  7. 7

    and you have set him over the works of your hands.

  8. 8

    You have subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen, and in addition: the beasts of the field,

  9. 9

    the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, which pass through the paths of the sea.

  10. 10

    O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is your name throughout all the earth!
