1[For the Chief Musician; on an instrument of Gath. A Psalm by David.] LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth. You have put your glory upon the heavens.

2From the lips of children and infants you have established praise, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

3When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars which you have set in place;

4what is man, that you think of him, and the son of man that you care for him?

5For you have made him a little lower than the angels. You have crowned him with glory and honor,

6and you made him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:

7all sheep and cattle, and also the wild animals,

8the birds of the sky, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

9LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth.
