Psalms 8
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1(8-1) For the Leader; upon the Gittith. A Psalm of David. (8-2) O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth! whose majesty is rehearsed above the heavens.
1Unto the end, for the presses: a psalm of David.
2(8-3) Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast Thou founded strength, because of Thine adversaries; that Thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
2O Lord our Lord, how admirable is thy name in the whole earth! For thy magnificence is elevated above the heavens.
3(8-4) When I behold Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast established;
3Out of the mouth of infants and of sucklings thou hast perfected praise, because of thy enemies, that thou mayst destroy the enemy and the avenger.
4(8-5) What is man, that Thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that Thou thinkest of him?
4For I will behold thy heavens, the works of thy fingers: the moon and the stars which thou hast founded.
5(8-6) Yet Thou hast made him but little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
5What is man that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest hi?
6(8-7) Thou hast made him to have dominion over the works of Thy hands; Thou hast put all things under His feet:
6Thou hast made him a little less than the angels, thou hast crowned him with glory and honour:
7(8-8) Sheep and oxen, all of them, yea, and the beasts of the field;
7And hast set him over the works of thy hands.
8(8-9) The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea; whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
8Thou hast subjected all things under his feet, all sheep and oxen: moreover the beasts also of the fields.
9(8-10) O LORD, our Lord, how glorious is Thy name in all the earth!
9The birds of the air, and the fishes of the sea, that pass through the paths of the sea.
