How Majestic Is Your Name (PSA 8:1-9)

A Shiggaion of David, which he sang to the Lord concerning the words of Cush, a Benjaminite.

[8:1] O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.

[8:2] Out of the mouth of babies and infants, you have established strength because of your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger.

[8:3] When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,

[8:4] what is man that you are mindful of him, and the son of man that you care for him?

[8:5] Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honor.

[8:6] You have given him dominion over the works of your hands; you have put all things under his feet,

[8:7] all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field,

[8:8] the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

[8:9] O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
