View In My BiblePsalm 8
For the music leader. According to the Gittith. A psalm of David.
1 aLORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth! You made your glory higher than heaven!b 2 From the mouths of nursing babies you have laid a strong foundation because of your foes, in order to stop vengeful enemies. 3 When I look up at your skies, at what your fingers made— the moon and the stars that you set firmly in place— 4 what are human beings that you think about them; what are human beings that you pay attention to them? 5 You've made them only slightly less than divine, crowning them with glory and grandeur. 6 You've let them rule over your handiwork, putting everything under their feet— 7 all sheep and all cattle, the wild animals too, 8 the birds in the sky, the fish of the ocean, everything that travels the pathways of the sea. 9 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name throughout the earth!Copyright © 2011 Common English Bible (Common English Bible)
