Psalm 8:2-9
English Standard Version
2 (A)Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established (B)strength because of your foes,
to still (C)the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I (D)look at your heavens, the work of your (E)fingers,
the moon and the stars, (F)which you have set in place,
4 (G)what is man that you are (H)mindful of him,
and (I)the son of man that you (J)care for him?
5 Yet you have made him a little lower than (K)the heavenly beings[a]
and crowned him with (L)glory and honor.
6 You have given him (M)dominion over the works of your hands;
(N)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 along the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
