Psalms 8

God's glory is magnified by his works, and by his love to man.

 8:1 ¶ [[To the Chief Musician. On "the Gittith." A Melody of David.]] O Yahweh, our Lord! How majestic is thy Name, in all the earth, Who hast set thy splendour upon the heavens.

 8:2 Out of the mouth of children and sucklings, hast thou laid a foundation of strength,—because of thine adversaries, to make foe and avenger be still.

 8:3 ¶ When I view thy heavens, the work, of thy fingers, moon and stars, which thou hast established,

 8:4 What was weak man, that thou shouldst make mention of him? or the son of the earthborn, that thou shouldst set him in charge?

 8:5 That thou shouldst make him little less than messengers of God, with glory and honour, shouldst crown him?

 8:6 Shouldst give him dominion over the works of thy hands,—All things, shouldst have put under his feet:

 8:7 Sheep and oxen, all of them,—yea even the beasts of the field;

 8:8 The bird of the heavens, and the fishes of the sea,—the passer-by on the paths of the seas?

 8:9 O Yahweh, our Lord! How majestic is thy Name, in all the earth.
