PSALM VIII.

1 Jehovah, our Lord,

How glorious is Thy name in all the earth!

Who hast set Thy glory upon the heavens.

2 Out of the mouth of children and sucklings hast Thou founded a

strength,

Because of Thine adversaries,

To still the enemy and the revengeful.

3 When I gaze on Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers,

Moon and stars, which Thou hast established,

4 What is frail man, that Thou rememberest him,

And the son of man, that Thou visitest him?

5 For Thou didst let him fall but little short of God,

And crownedst him with glory and honour.

6 Thou madest him ruler over the works of Thy hands;

Thou hast put all things under his feet,

7 Sheep and oxen, all of them,

And likewise beasts of the field,

8 Fowl of the heavens and fishes of the sea,

Whatever traverses the paths of the seas.
