Psalm 8 (Holman Christian Standard)

God's Glory, Man's Dignity

For the choir director: on the Gittith. A Davidic psalm.

1 Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is Your name throughout the earth! You have covered the heavens with Your majesty.a b 2 Because of Your adversaries, You have established a strongholdc from the mouths of children and nursing infants,d to silence the enemy and the avenger. 3 When I observe Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You set in place, 4 what is man that You remember him, the son of man that You look after him?e 5 You made him little less than Godf g and crowned him with glory and honor. 6 You made him lord over the works of Your hands; You put everything under his feet:h i 7 all the sheep and oxen, as well as animals in the wild, 8 birds of the sky, and fish of the sea passing through the currents of the seas. 9 Lord, our Lord, how magnificent is Your name throughout the earth!
