[8:1] O Lord, our Lord, your greatness is seen in all the world! Your praise reaches up to the heavens;
[8:2] it is sung by children and babies. You are safe and secure from all your enemies; you stop anyone who opposes you.
[8:3] When I look at the sky, which you have made, at the moon and the stars, which you set in their places—
[8:4] what are human beings, that you think of them; mere mortals, that you care for them?
[8:5] Yet you made them inferior only to yourself; you crowned them with glory and honor.
[8:6] You appointed them rulers over everything you made; you placed them over all creation:
[8:7] sheep and cattle, and the wild animals too;
[8:8] the birds and the fish and the creatures in the seas.
[8:9] O Lord, our Lord, your greatness is seen in all the world!
