Psalm 8
For the director of music. According to gittith. A psalm of David.
Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens.
-
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
-
He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet.
-
Psalm 19
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
-
Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
-
It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
-
By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
-
Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies.
-
He summons the heavens above, and the earth, that he may judge his people:
-
And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for he is a God of justice.
-
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
-
For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
-
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
-
the earth shook, the heavens poured down rain, before God, the One of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.
-
to him who rides across the highest heavens, the ancient heavens, who thunders with mighty voice.
-
Proclaim the power of God, whose majesty is over Israel, whose power is in the heavens.
-
Your righteousness, God, reaches to the heavens, you who have done great things. Who is like you, God?
-
When I was in distress, I sought the Lord; at night I stretched out untiring hands, and I would not be comforted.
-
Then I thought, “To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand.
-
The clouds poured down water, the heavens resounded with thunder; your arrows flashed back and forth.
-
Yet he gave a command to the skies above and opened the doors of the heavens;
-
He let loose the east wind from the heavens and by his power made the south wind blow.
-
The heavens praise your wonders, Lord, your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones.
-
The heavens are yours, and yours also the earth; you founded the world and all that is in it.
-
I will establish his line forever, his throne as long as the heavens endure.
