Chapter 8

How Majestic Is Your Name!

1For the choirmaster. According to Gittith.a A Psalm of David.

O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
You have set Your glory
above the heavens.
2 From the mouths of children and infants
You have ordained praiseb
on account of Your adversaries,
to silence the enemy and avenger.
3 When I behold Your heavens,
the work of Your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which You have set in place —
4 what is man that You are mindful of him,
or the son of man that You care for him?
5 You made him a little lower than the angels;c
You crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You made him ruler of the works of Your hands;
You have placed everything under his feet:d
7 all sheep and oxen,
and even the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the air and the fish of the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
