Psalms Chapter 8

Young's Literal Translation

   1: To the Overseer, 'On the Gittith.' A Psalm of David. Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth! Who settest thine honour on the heavens.
   2: From the mouths of infants and sucklings Thou hast founded strength, Because of Thine adversaries, To still an enemy and a self-avenger.
   3: For I see Thy heavens, a work of Thy fingers, Moon and stars that Thou didst establish.
   4: What [is] man that Thou rememberest him? The son of man that Thou inspectest him?
   5: And causest him to lack a little of Godhead, And with honour and majesty compassest him.
   6: Thou dost cause him to rule Over the works of Thy hands, All Thou hast placed under his feet.
   7: Sheep and oxen, all of them, And also beasts of the field,
   8: Bird of the heavens, and fish of the sea, Passing through the paths of the seas!
   9: Jehovah, our Lord, How honourable Thy name in all the earth!
