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! |
