The Book of Psalms
Psalm 8
Domine, Dominus noster.
God is wonderful in his works; especially in mankind, singularly exalted by the incarnation of Christ.
 1 |
Unto the end, for the presses: a psalm for David. |
2 |
O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! For thy magnificence is elevated above the heavens. |
3 |
Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger. |
4 |
For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: the moon and the stars which thou hast founded. |
5 |
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man, that thou visitest him? |
6 |
Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour: |
7 |
And hast set him over the works of thy hands. |
8 |
Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen: moreover, the beasts also of the fields. |
9 |
The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, that pass through the paths of the sea. |
10 |
O Lord, our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! |
