| 8:1 | The Glory of the LORD in CreationTo the Chief Musician. On the instrument of Gath. A Psalm of David. O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens! |
| 8:2 | Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger. |
| 8:3 | When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, |
| 8:4 | What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? |
| 8:5 | For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor. |
| 8:6 | You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, |
| 8:7 | All sheep and oxen-- Even the beasts of the field, |
| 8:8 | The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas. |
| 8:9 | O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth! |
