# Psalm 8 (New King James Version)
The Glory of the Lord in Creation

##### Chapter 8
###### 1 O Lord, our Lord,  
How excellent _is_ Your name in all the earth,  
Who have set Your glory above the heavens!

###### 2 Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants  
You have ordained strength,  
Because of Your enemies,  
That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.

###### 3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,  
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,  

###### 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 a little lower than the angels,  
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.

###### 6 You have 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 air,  
And the fish of the sea  
That pass through the paths of the seas.

###### 9 O Lord, our Lord,  
How excellent _is_ Your name in all the earth!
