Psalm 8:3-8
English Standard Version
Psalm 8:3-8
English Standard Version
3 When I (A)look at your heavens, the work of your (B)fingers,
the moon and the stars, (C)which you have set in place,
4 (D)what is man that you are (E)mindful of him,
and (F)the son of man that you (G)care for him?
5 Yet you have made him a little lower than (H)the heavenly beings[a]
and crowned him with (I)glory and honor.
6 You have given him (J)dominion over the works of your hands;
(K)you have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
