Psalm 8 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

The Lord’s Glory and Mankind’s Dignity.

For the music director; on the Gittith. A Psalm of David.

8 Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth,
You who have ^[a]^(A)displayed Your splendor above the heavens!
²^(B)From the mouths of infants and nursing babies You have established ^[b]^(C)strength
Because of Your enemies,
To do away with ^(D)the enemy and the revengeful.

³When I ^[c]^(E)consider ^(F)Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The ^(G)moon and the stars, which You have set in place;
⁴^(H)What is man that You think of him,
And a son of man that You are concerned about him?
⁵Yet You have made him a ^(I)little lower than ^[d]God,
And ^(J)You crown him with ^(K)glory and majesty!
⁶You have him ^(L)rule over the works of Your hands;
You have ^(M)put everything under his feet,
⁷All sheep and oxen,
And also the animals of the field,
⁸The birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea,
Whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

⁹^(N)Lord, our Lord,
How majestic is Your name in all the earth!
