1 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens.2 Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them? [^1]5 You have made them "a little lower than the angels "and crowned them "with glory and honor.6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their "feet:7 all flocks and herds, and the animals of the wild,8 the birds in the sky, and the fish in the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.9 LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

1 In finem, pro torcularibus. Psalmus David. 2 [Domine, Dominus noster,quam admirabile est nomen tuum in universa terra !quoniam elevata est magnificentia tua super clos.3 Ex ore infantium et lactentium perfecisti laudem propter inimicos tuos,ut destruas inimicum et ultorem.4 Quoniam videbo clos tuos, opera digitorum tuorum,lunam et stellas qu tu fundasti.5 Quid est homo, quod memor es ejus ?aut filius hominis, quoniam visitas eum ?6 Minuisti eum paulominus ab angelis ;gloria et honore coronasti eum ;7 et constituisti eum super opera manuum tuarum.8 Omnia subjecisti sub pedibus ejus,oves et boves universas,insuper et pecora campi,9 volucres cli, et pisces marisqui perambulant semitas maris.10 Domine, Dominus noster,quam admirabile est nomen tuum in universa terra !]
