Psalm 8
|
|
| 8:1
O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set
thy glory above the heavens. |
|
| 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. |
|
| 8:3
When I consider thy
heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou
hast ordained; |
God made the heavens with his fingers.
|
| 8:4
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou
visitest him? |
 What is Man?
(William Blake, 1793)
|
| 8:5
For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned
him with glory and honour.
|
| 8:6
Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast
put all things under his feet:
|
| 8:7
All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; |
|
| 8:8
The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth
through the paths of the seas. |
|
| 8:9
O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
