Berean Standard Bible
1LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens!
O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the heavens.
2From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise on account of Your adversaries, to silence the enemy and avenger.
3When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained,
When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place -
4what is man, that you think of him? What is the son of man, that you care for him?
what is man that You are mindful of him, or the son of man that You care for him?
5For you have made him a little lower than the angels, and crowned him with glory and honor.
You made him a little lower than the angels; You crowned him with glory and honor.
6You make him ruler over the works of your hands. You have put all things under his feet:
You made him ruler of the works of Your hands; You have placed everything under his feet:
7All sheep and cattle, yes, and the animals of the field,
all sheep and oxen, and even the beasts of the field,
8the birds of the sky, the fish of the sea, and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
the birds of the air and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.
9LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!
