Chapter 8
|
1
|
O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all
the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. |
2
|
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained
strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest
still the enemy and the avenger. |
3
|
When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; |
4
|
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the
son of man, that thou visitest him? |
5
|
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels,
and hast crowned him with glory and honour. |
6
|
Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of
thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: |
7
|
All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; |
8
|
The fowl 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! |
