Psalm 8
New American Standard Bible
The Lord’s Glory and Mankind’s Dignity.
For the music director; on the Gittith. A Psalm of David.
8 Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth,
You who have [a](A)displayed Your splendor above the heavens!
2 (B)From the mouths of infants and nursing babies You have established [b](C)strength
Because of Your enemies,
To do away with (D)the enemy and the revengeful.
3 When I [c](E)consider (F)Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The (G)moon and the stars, which You have set in place;
4 (H)What is man that You think of him,
And a son of man that You are concerned about him?
5 Yet You have made him a (I)little lower than [d]God,
And (J)You crown him with (K)glory and majesty!
6 You have him (L)rule over the works of Your hands;
You have (M)put everything under his feet,
7 All sheep and oxen,
And also the animals of the field,
8 The birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea,
Whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
9 (N)Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth!
