Psalms 8

1 TO THE OVERSEER. ON THE GITTITH. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH, our Lord, || How majestic [is] Your Name in all the earth, || Who have set Your splendor on the heavens!2 From the mouths of infants and sucklings || You have founded strength, || Because of Your adversaries, || To still an enemy and a self-avenger.

3 For I see Your heavens, a work of Your fingers, || [The] moon and stars that You established.4 What [is] man that You remember him? The son of man that You inspect him?5 You make him a little lower than the gods [[or God]], || And surround him with glory and majesty.6 You cause him to rule || Over the works of Your hands, || You have placed all under his feet.7 Sheep and oxen, all of them, || And also beasts of the field,8 Bird of the heavens, and fish of the sea, || Passing through the paths of the seas!9 YHWH, our Lord, || How majestic [is] Your Name in all the earth!
