- 1
LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!
- 2
From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
- 3
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,
- 4
what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?
- 5
For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.
- 6
You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:
- 7
All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,
- 8
the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
- 9
LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
