For the director of music. According to gittith.#Title: Probably a musical term A psalm of David.

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?*8:4 Or what is a human being that you are mindful of him, / a son of man that you care for him?

5 You have made them*8:5 Or him a little lower than the angels*8:5 Or than God

and crowned them*8:5 Or him with glory and honor.

6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands;

you put everything under their*8:6 Or made him ruler…; / …his 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!
