# Psalms 8

[1](#verse-1) LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!

[2](#verse-2) From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

[3](#verse-3) When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,

[4](#verse-4) what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?

[5](#verse-5) For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.

[6](#verse-6) You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

[7](#verse-7) All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,

[8](#verse-8) the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

[9](#verse-9) LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
