Psalms 8: (ASV)
|
1) O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth, Who hast set thy glory upon the heavens!
|
2) Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, Because of thine adversaries, That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
|
3) When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, The moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
|
4) What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him?
|
5) For thou hast made him but little lower than God, And crownest him with glory and honor.
|
6) Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet:
|
7) All sheep and oxen, Yea, and the beasts of the field,
|
8) The birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, Whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
|
9) O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth!
