1 O Jehovah our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens!

2 Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings You have ordained strength, because of Your enemies, that You might remove the enemy and the avenger.

3 When I look at Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars which You have established;

4 what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him?

5 For You have made him lacking a little from God, and have crowned him with glory and honor.

6 You made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet:

7 all sheep and oxen, even the beasts of the field;

8 the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea passing through the paths of the seas.

9 O Jehovah, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth!
