¹ O LORD our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens. ² Out of the mouth of children and infants have you ordained strength because of your enemies, that you might stop 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 have crowned him with glory and honour. 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, yes, and the beasts of the field; ⁸ The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and all that passes through the paths of the seas. ⁹ O LORD our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth!
