8 O Jehovah, our Lord, How excellent is thy name in all the earth,
Who hast set thy glory ^[a]upon the heavens!
² Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength,
Because of thine adversaries,
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 but little lower than ^[b]God,
And crownest him with glory and honor.

⁹ O Jehovah, our Lord,
How excellent is thy name in all the earth!
