[ Read](/kjv/psalms/8)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/8)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/8) Audio

 1 O LORD our Lord, how excellent *is* thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

 2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.*

 3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

 5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.

 6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all *things* under his feet:

 7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;*

 8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, *and whatsoever* passeth through the paths of the seas.

 9 O LORD our Lord, how excellent *is* thy name in all the earth!
 
[Psalms 7](/study/psalms/7) [Psalms 9](/study/psalms/9)
