O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens!1For the choir director; on the Gittith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth, Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens!
2Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.2From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength Because of Your adversaries, To make the enemy and the revengeful cease.
3When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,3When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained;
4What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?4What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him?
5For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor.5Yet You have made him a little lower than God, And You crown him with glory and majesty!
6You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,6You make him to rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
7All sheep and oxen— Even the beasts of the field,7All sheep and oxen, And also the beasts of the field,
8The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas.8The birds of the heavens and the fish of the sea, Whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
9O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth!9O LORD, our Lord, How majestic is Your name in all the earth!
