For the choir director; on the Gittith. A Psalm of David. ¹ O LORD, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth,
Who have displayed Your splendor above the heavens! ² From the mouth of infants and nursing babes You have established strength
Because of Your adversaries,
To make the enemy and the revengeful cease. ³ When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained; ⁴ What is man that You take thought of him,
And the son of man that You care for him? ⁵ Yet You have made him a little lower than God,
And You crown him with glory and majesty! ⁶ You make him to rule over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet, ⁷ All sheep and oxen,
And also 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!
