For the choirmaster. According to Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens. |
|
2
|
From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise on account of Your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger. |
|
3
|
When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place— |
|
4
|
what is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him? |
|
5
|
You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor. |
|
6
|
You made him ruler of the works of Your hands; You have placed everything under his feet: |
|
7
|
all sheep and oxen, and even the beasts of the field, |
|
8
|
the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas. |
