The Psalter According to the Seventy
Psalm 8
For the End: A Psalm of David Concerning the Winepresses.
O Lord, our Lord, how wonderful is Thy name in all the earth! For Thy magnificence is lifted high above the heavens.
2
Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings hast Thou perfected praise, because of Thine enemies, to destroy the enemy and avenger.
3
For I will behold the heavens, the works of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast founded.
4
What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? Or the son of man, that Thou visitest him?
5
Thou hast made him a little lower than the angels; with glory and honour hast Thou crowned him, and Thou hast set him over the works of Thy hands.
6
All things hast Thou subjected under his feet, sheep, and all oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field,
7
The birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, the things that pass through the paths of the sea.
8
O Lord, our Lord, how wonderful is Thy name in all the earth!
