          DASV: Psalm 8    

For the music director. According to The Gittith. A psalm of David.

1 O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth;
     you have set your glory upon the heavens!
2 Out of the mouth of babies and infants you have ordained praise
     because of your adversaries,
           that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers,
     the moon and the stars, that you have put in place,
4 what is man, that you are mindful of him,
     and the son of man, that you care for him?
5 For you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings,
     and crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You have given him rule over the works of your hands;
     you have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and oxen,
     and even the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the heavens,
     and the fish of the sea,
           whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
9 O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
