(KJV) Psalm 8¹

⥃How Majestic Is Your Name!

To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.

[1] O Lord our² Lord, how³ excellent [is] thy⁴ name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. [2] Out⁵ of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained⁶ strength⁷ because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still⁸ the enemy⁹ and the avenger. [3] When¹⁰ I consider thy heavens, the work¹¹ of thy fingers, the moon¹² and the stars, which thou hast ordained; [4] What¹³ is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son¹⁴ of man, that thou visitest¹⁵ him? [5] For thou¹⁶ hast¹⁷ made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. [6] Thou madest¹⁸ him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put¹⁹ all [things] under his feet: [7] All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;²⁰ [8] The fowl²¹ of the air, and the fish of the sea, [and whatsoever] passeth through the paths of the seas. [9] O Lord our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth! ²²
