Psalm 8 - Modern King James Version

¹ To the Chief Musician, on the harp. A Psalm of David. O Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens!

² Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings You have ordained strength, because of ones vexing You, to cause the enemy and the avenger to cease.

³ When I look at Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars which You have established;

⁴ what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man, that You visit him?

⁵ For You have made him lack a little from God, and have crowned him with glory and honor.

⁶ You made him rule over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet:

⁷ all sheep and oxen, yes, and the beasts of the field;

⁸ the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, and all that pass through the paths of the seas.

⁹ O Jehovah, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth!
