Psalm 8

Psa 8:1	¶	[[To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A Psalm of David.]] O LORD our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
Psa 8:2		Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
Psa 8:3		When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
Psa 8:4		What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
Psa 8:5		For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
Psa 8:6		Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all [things] under his feet:
Psa 8:7		All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
Psa 8:8		The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, [and whatsoever] passeth through the paths of the seas.
Psa 8:9		O LORD our Lord, how excellent [is] thy name in all the earth!
