[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!
