Psalm 8

New Century Version NCV

1 Lord our Lord, your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth! It brings you praise in heaven above.

2 You have taught children and babies to sing praises to you because of your enemies. And so you silence your enemies and destroy those who try to get even.

3 I look at your heavens, which you made with your fingers. I see the moon and stars, which you created.

4 But why are people important to you? Why do you take care of human beings?

5 You made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.

6 You put them in charge of everything you made. You put all things under their control:

7 all the sheep, the cattle, and the wild animals,

8 the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that lives under water.

9 Lord our Lord, your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth! For the director of music. To the tune of "The Death of the Son." A psalm of David.

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 For the leader. On the gittit. A psalm of David: ADONAI! Our Lord! How glorious is your name throughout the earth! The fame of your majesty spreads even above the heavens!

2 From the mouths of babies and infants at the breast you established strength because of your foes, in order that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and stars that you set in place -

4 what are mere mortals, that you concern yourself with them; humans, that you watch over them with such care?

5 You made him but little lower than the angels, you crowned him with glory and honor,

6 you had him rule what your hands made, you put everything under his feet -

7 sheep and oxen, all of them, also the animals in the wilds,

8 the birds in the air, the fish in the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

9 ADONAI! Our Lord! How glorious is your name throughout the earth!
