Psalm 8 — The Holy Bible

For the End; concerning the winepresses; a psalm by David.

O Lord, our Lord, how wondrous is Your name in all the earth,

For Your splendor is exalted far beyond the heavens.

From the mouths of babies and nursing infants

You prepared praise because of Your enemies,

That You may destroy the enemy and avenger.

For I shall look at the heavens, the works of Your fingers,

The moon and stars You established.

What is man that You remember him,

Or the son of man that You visit him?

You made him a little lower than the angels;

You crowned him with glory and honor.

You set him over the works of Your hands;

You subjected all things under his feet,

All sheep and oxen,

And besides these, also the animals of the field,

The birds of heaven and the fish of the sea,

And the things passing through the paths of the seas.

O Lord, our Lord, how wondrous is Your name in all the earth.
