Psalm Chapter 8 Back Next Psalm 8 For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of
Gath. A Psalm by
David.
{8:1} Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the
earth, who has set your glory above the
heavens!
{8:2} From the lips of
babes and
infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
{8:3} When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;
{8:4} what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?
{8:5} For you have made him a little lower than
God, and
crowned him with glory and honor.
{8:6} You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:
{8:7} All sheep and
cattle, yes, and the animals of the
field,
{8:8} The
birds of the sky, the
fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
{8:9} Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! Psalm 9 For the Chief Musician. Set to "The
Death of the Son." A Psalm by David.
