| 8 | Psalms | ||
| To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. A Psalm of David. | God's Glory & Man's dignity. | ||
| 1 | O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is thy name in all the earth! Thou whose glory above the heavens is chanted | ||
| 2 | by the mouth of babes and infants, thou hast founded a bulwark because of thy foes, to still the enemy and the avenger. | ||
| 3 | When I look at thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars which thou hast established; | ||
| 4 | what is man that thou art mindful of him, and the son of man that thou dost care for him? | ||
| 5 | Yet thou hast made him little less than God, and dost crown him with glory and honor. | ||
| 6 | Thou hast given him dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet, | ||
| 7 | all sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, | ||
| 8 | the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the sea. | ||
| 9 | O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth. | ||
